Vitiligo is a skin condition characterized by the loss of pigmentation, resulting in white patches on the skin. It occurs when melanocytes, the cells responsible for producing skin pigment, are destroyed. The exact cause of vitiligo is unknown, but it is believed to involve autoimmune, genetic, and environmental factors. Treatment options aim to restore color to the affected areas and may include topical corticosteroids, immunomodulators, light therapy, and, in some cases, skin grafting or depigmentation of the remaining pigmented skin for uniformity.
