Understanding Vitiligo: Causes and Symptoms
Vitiligo occurs when melanocytes, the cells responsible for producing pigment, stop functioning. While the exact cause is unknown, autoimmune responses, genetic predisposition, and environmental factors are known contributors. Vitiligo often appears as white patches on the skin, but its effects can extend beyond the surface.
When you fight alongside our team, you're not just treating vitiligo, you're transforming your life.
Common Symptoms of Vitiligo:
- Loss of skin color in patches, often starting on the face, hands, or feet.
- Premature whitening or graying of hair, eyebrows, or eyelashes.
- Changes in mucous membranes (e.g., inside the mouth or nose).
- Patches of skin more sensitive to sunlight.
Vitiligo is not painful or contagious, but its psychological impact can be significant, making treatment a priority for many.
