Causes of Vitiligo
Vitiligo affects the manner in which pigmentation occurs in the skin. It occurs when the functioning of the melanocytes is affected. When these cells are destroyed, there is a loss of pigment in the skin and light patches start appearing. But what exactly triggers this de-pigmentation? The definite cause of this condition remains unknown, but there are some theories as to why vitiligo develops in some people. Vitiligo is known to be an autoimmune disorder where an individuals immune system attacks the bodys own organs, cells and tissues. This is one of the most common explanations for why vitiligo occurs. Another reason could be self-destruction of the melanocytes. Vitiligo is seen to run in families and hence a genetic link is also possible.

Treatment Vitiligo

Steroids can be used to stimulate the skin to produce the missing or deficient melanocytes and thus darkening the white skin patches. Steroids have many dangerous side effects and are typically only a temporary treatment. Stop using the steroids and the Vitiligo usually returns soon after. There is a process known as “depigmentation” that is really a backward treatment. It involves using steroids or other agents to lighten your normal skin to match the color of your Vitiligo affected skin. Obviously, this could be more embarrassing than the Vitiligo by its self. There is a range of cosmetic options to hide or mask the white patches but this only offers a psychological solution and is only very temporary. In extreme cases, surgery can be used to graft skin from non-affected areas.
