What Is Vitiligo?
Vitiligo occurs when melanocytes (the cells responsible for skin color) stop functioning or are destroyed. This results in depigmented patches that may affect the face, hands, feet, scalp, lips, or other areas of the body.
Common features of vitiligo include:
- White or light-colored patches on the skin
- Premature whitening of hair on the scalp or body
- Loss of color inside the mouth or nose
- Gradual or sudden progression of patches
Causes of Vitiligo
Vitiligo is considered an autoimmune condition, where the body’s immune system attacks its own pigment cells. Factors that may contribute include:
- Genetic predisposition
- Autoimmune disorders
- Oxidative stress
- Emotional or physical triggers
