Vitiligo is a chronic autoimmune depigmenting disorder in which cytotoxic CD8+ T cells destroy epidermal melanocytes, causing well-demarcated milky-white macules and patches. In Chennai, specialist dermatologists offer evidence-backed therapies to arrest disease activity and stimulate melanocyte migration from hair follicle reservoirs.

Medical treatments combine topical calcineurin inhibitors, topical JAK inhibitors (ruxolitinib), oral corticosteroid mini-pulse therapy for rapidly spreading lesions, and targeted phototherapy (308nm Excimer laser or Narrowband UVB).

For stable vitiligo (unaltered for at least 12 months), dermatologists perform surgical melanocyte transplantation, including Non-Cultured Epidermal Cell Suspension (NCES) grafting and punch grafting with high repigmentation rates. Doctor consultations start at around ₹500.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can white vitiligo patches be repigmented in Chennai?

Yes. Combining targeted phototherapy (Excimer/NB-UVB) with topical immunomodulators stimulates dormant melanocytes in hair follicles to repigment patches.

When is surgical melanocyte grafting considered for vitiligo?

When vitiligo patches have remained completely stable with no new lesions or spreading for at least one full year, surgical NCES grafting yields excellent results.

Is vitiligo contagious or related to dietary habits?

Vitiligo is an autoimmune condition and is 100% non-contagious. Dietary myths (avoiding sour foods, milk, or fish) have no scientific validity.
