About Light Therapy For Vitiligo
Vitiligo is a condition where the skin loses its pigment, resulting in white patches that can affect self-confidence and emotional well-being. At Skintimacy, we offer targeted Phototherapy - a scientifically proven treatment that helps manage and gradually repigment affected areas.
Phototherapy uses controlled exposure to narrowband UVB light to stimulate melanocytes (pigment-producing cells) in the skin. This encourages pigment return in areas affected by Vitiligo, especially when the condition is stable and non-progressive. The treatment is non-invasive, painless, and safe for both children and adults.
Regular sessions can significantly improve the appearance of white patches over time. Results vary based on the extent and location of the patches, but many patients begin to notice visible improvement within a few weeks. At Skintimacy, Dr. Disha Baxi customizes each Phototherapy protocol to suit your skin type and the stage of your Vitiligo, ensuring maximum safety and effectiveness. Treatment is done in a calm, clinical environment with close monitoring to track progress and adapt as needed. Rediscover your skin’s potential with compassionate care and expert-led treatment for Vitiligo.
