I'm dealing with post-inflammatory hypopigmentation and was wondering if tacrolimus 0.1 is a safe option for treating it? I'm worried if it really helps with getting rid of the depigmented skin and if it's okay to use for conditions that aren't vitiligo. Any insights would be really appreciated!

Tacrolimus 0.1% ointment can be used to treat post inflammatory hypopigmentation. It helps to restore skin color by promoting melanin production. It is also safe to use in non-vitiligo conditions such as post inflammatory hypopigmentation. The usual dosage is to apply a thin layer of tacrolimus ointment to the affected area twice daily.
