Are you also willing to treat your vitiligo? This is a complete guide for your vitiligo treatment.
What is vitiligo?
A disorder called vitiligo results in patches of skin losing their colour. With time, the discoloured regions typically enlarge. Any portion of the body’s skin might be impacted by this condition. The tongue and hair can also be impacted by it. Melanin in our body is responsible for controlling the hue of skin and hair. When Melanin-producing cells die or stop working, vitiligo occurs . All skin tones are prone to develop vitiligo but people who have dark or black skin may notice it more. Neither the ailment is infectious nor life-threatening. Vitiligo can cause stress or make you feel self-conscious which can further lead to decrease in self esteem and social habits.
What factors are responsible for causing vitiligo?
When melanin, the pigment that gives your skin, hair, and eyes colour, stops generating by pigment-producing cells called melanocytes, it results in vitiligo. Patches of the afflicted skin turned lighter or white. It is uncertain what specifically causes these pigment cells to fail or age. It might be connected to:
- Immune system dysfunction (autoimmune disease)
- Heredity: family history
- A catalyst, such as anxiety, a severe sunburn, or skin damage from coming into contact with chemicals
What are the symptoms of vitiligo?
Signs of vitiligo include:
- Patches of skin colour loss that often start on the hands, face, and areas close to body openings and the genitalia.
- premature whitening or greying of your scalp, eyelashes, beard, or eyebrow hairÂ
- Mucosal membranes lose color.
- Although vitiligo can begin at any age, it often manifests before the age of 30.
The following may be impacted by your vitiligo, depending on the type:
- Every skin surface-This type of vitiligo, also known as universal vitiligo, causes practically all skin surfaces to discolour.
- Vitiligo on the various parts of the body- discoloured patches of this most prevalent type of vitiligo, known as generalised vitiligo, frequently progress symmetrically on various body parts.
- One side or portion of the body only-Segmental vitiligo is a form that typically starts earlier in life, progresses for a year or two, and then stops.
- Hands and face vitiligo –This type of vitiligo, also known as acrofacial vitiligo, affects the hands, face, and the skin surrounding body openings like the eyes, nose, and ears.
What is the most effective method to treat vitiligo at the Dezire clinic?
Among the various methods available in the market, we provide a micropigmentation procedure because of the high success rate and the natural results of this procedure.In situations where other treatments fail, this process known as micro pigmentation can be used to restore skin pigmentation.In order to improve the affected individuals’ aesthetic look, vitiligo micropigmentation therapy is frequently applied to the skin on the face and other smaller skin locations.
How can micropigmentation help individuals suffering from vitiligo?
Micropigmentation can assist in blending vitiligo’s colour to more nearly resemble surrounding skin.As well as softens and flattens the vitiligo skin, breaking up its roughness and giving a smooth texture to your skin.
What is the procedure of micro pigmentation for vitiligo treatment at the Dezire clinic?
Micropigmentation, also known as cosmetic tattooing or permanent makeup, is a procedure that can be used to help camouflage areas of depigmented skin caused by vitiligo. The procedure involves depositing pigment into the skin to match the surrounding natural skin colour, thereby reducing the contrast between the depigmented patches and the rest of the skin. Here is a general outline of the procedure for micropigmentation for vitiligo treatment
- Consultation: The first step is to consult with our dermatologist who specialises in treating vitiligo. During the consultation, you will discuss your medical history, the extent of your vitiligo, and your treatment goals. Our surgeon will evaluate your skin and determine if you are a suitable candidate for micropigmentation.
- Colour matching: The specialist will analyse the colour of your surrounding skin and select a pigment or combination of pigments that closely match your natural skin tone. They may also consider factors like skin undertones and variations in colour to achieve the most natural-looking result.
- Preparing the area: The treatment area will be thoroughly cleansed and prepared. The specialist may apply a topical anaesthetic to minimise discomfort during the procedure.
- Pigment application: Using a specialised device, such as a handheld rotary pen or a digital tattoo machine, the specialist will carefully and precisely deposit the pigment into the depigmented areas of the skin. They will use a technique called pointillism, creating tiny dots that resemble the appearance of natural pigmentation.
- Layering and blending: Our dermatologist may apply multiple layers of pigment to achieve the desired colour intensity and ensure a natural blend with the surrounding skin.Â
- Healing and aftercare: After the procedure, the treated area may appear slightly darker than the desired result. This is normal and will fade as the skin heals. Our specialist will provide you with detailed aftercare instructions, which may include avoiding sun exposure, keeping the area clean, and applying prescribed ointments or creams to aid in the healing process.
- Follow-up sessions: Depending on the extent of your vitiligo and the desired outcome, you might require multiple sessions to achieve optimal results.Â
