Vitiligo

Vitiligo is a chronic skin disorder, which causes patchy loss of skin colouring (pigmentation). It occurs when skin cells that make pigment – are attacked and destroyed, that causes the skin to turn a milky-white in colour.

An average age of onset of vitiligo is in the mid-twenties, but it can appear at any age.

Its size and number of patches varies from person to person. This condition tends to progress over time, with larger areas of the skin losing pigment.

WHAT ARE THE TYPES OF VITILIGO

Non-segmental Vitiligo

Also known as bilateral or generalized vitiligo, the symptoms often appear on both sides of your body as symmetrical white patches.

Symmetrical patches can appear on the:
Backs of your hands
Arms
Skin around body openings, such as the eyes
Knees

Segmental Vitiligo

Also known as unilateral or localized vitiligo, the white patches only affect one area of your body.

Segmental vitiligo is less common than non-segmental vitiligo, although it's more common in children. It usually starts earlier and affects 3 in 10 children with vitiligo.

In rare cases, it's possible for vitiligo to affect your whole body. This is known as universal or complete vitiligo.
