There is a solution!
Phototherapy
This involves exposing affected skin to artificial ultraviolet light. Narrow-band Ultraviolet B (NB-UVB) phototherapy is considered the gold standard treatment for vitiligo.
How does it work?
The treatment usually requires a full body unit, where affected skin is exposed from 40 seconds to 5 minutes. 2 to 3 sessions a week are recommended.
Is it safe?
NB-UVB phototherapy is safe when used by qualified providers.
