Vitiligo Treatment
Vitiligo (vit-ill-EYE-go
) is a pigmentation disorder in which melanocytes (the cells that make
pigment) in the skin, the mucous membranes (tissues that line the inside
of the mouth and nose and genital and rectal areas), and the retina (inner
layer of the eyeball) are destroyed. As a result, white patches of skin
appear on different parts of the body. The hair that grows in areas affected
by vitiligo usually turns white.
