What is Vitiligo (Leukoderma)?
Vitiligo ( leukoderma ) is a skin condition in which patches of skin lose pigment due to dysfunction or loss of melanocytes, the cells responsible for producing melanin.
Vitiligo can appear on the face, scalp, hands, feet, lips, limbs, or other body areas. Its course may vary from patient to patient.
Vitiligo patches may:
- Remain stable for long periods
- Spread gradually
- Show partial or significant re-pigmentation
- Recur after a period of stability
In children, early-stage vitiligo is important because timely intervention may help stabilize the condition and support re-pigmentation.
