Question

I've been dealing with vitiligo and noticed white patches on my fingers and a bit on my lower lip. Are there any cosmetic treatments that can help without surgery? Can this condition be cured? I'd like to know my options so I can plan a visit for proper treatment.

Vitiligo can't be cured, but topical treatments and phototherapy help—cosmetic camouflage and lasers can improve appearance.

I was at your clinic on the 16th, and we talked about my hair fall and dandruff issues. You recommended kenzsal lotion, which I bought from the medicine store there.

Any suggestions on how to slow down or reduce the white hair?
