What is Vitiligo?
Vitiligo is a chronic skin condition characterized by the loss of pigmentation, resulting in white patches on the skin. These depigmented areas occur when melanocytes—the cells responsible for producing skin pigment (melanin)—are destroyed or stop functioning.
Vitiligo can affect any part of the body, including the face, hands, arms, feet, and even mucous membranes. While it is not physically harmful or contagious, it can have a profound emotional and social impact, affecting self-esteem and confidence.
Common Causes and Triggers of Vitiligo
The exact cause of Vitiligo is not fully understood, but several factors are believed to contribute:
- Autoimmune response: The body’s immune system mistakenly attacks melanocytes.
- Genetic predisposition: Family history can increase susceptibility.
- Environmental factors: Sunburns, chemical exposure, or skin trauma may trigger onset.
- Oxidative stress: Imbalance between free radicals and antioxidants in the skin.
- Neurogenic factors: Nerve-related chemicals may contribute to melanocyte destruction..
Symptoms – Typical Signs of Vitiligo
Recognizing the signs early can help manage Vitiligo effectively. Common symptoms include:
- Patchy loss of skin color on the hands, face, neck, or body.
- Premature graying of hair, eyelashes, or eyebrows.
- Loss of color in mucous membranes, such as the inside of the mouth or nose.
- Smooth, sharply defined white patches that gradually expand.
- Possible mild itching or discomfort in affected areas.
Types of Vitiligo
Generalized Vitiligo
Most common type, with symmetrical patches appearing across the body.
Segmental Vitiligo
Patches appear on one side of the body and often progress more rapidly initially.
Focal Vitiligo
Limited to one or a few areas without spreading.
Trichrome Vitiligo
Shows three distinct skin tones—normal, light, and depigmented areas.
Note: Vitiligo differs from other skin conditions like contact dermatitis, eczema, or hives, which involve inflammation rather than pigment loss.
