Vitiligo

Restore Balance. Protect Your Skin.

Vitiligo causes loss of skin pigment (melanin), appearing as well-defined white patches. It’s not contagious and it’s treatable. At Muthu Skin, Hair & Laser Clinic, our dermatologists design personalised protocols to stabilise disease, repigment patches, and help you feel confident again.
