MedlinePlus: Vitiligo causes white patches on your skin. it can also affect your eyes, mouth and nose. it occurs when the cells that give your skin its color are destroyed. no one knows what destroys them. it is more common in people with autoimmune diseases, and it might run in families. it usually starts before age 40.
the white patches are more common where your skin is exposed to the sun. in some cases, the patches spread. vitiligo can cause your hair to gray early. if you have dark skin, you may lose color inside your mouth.
using sunscreen will help protect your skin, and cosmetics can cover up the patches. treatments for vitiligo include medicines, light therapy and surgery. not every treatment is right for everyone. many have side effects. some take a long time. some do not always work.

MalaCards: Vitiligo, also known as vitiligo (disorder), is related to systemic lupus erythematosus and hepatitis. An important gene associated with Vitiligo is FBXO11 (F-box protein 11), and among its related pathways are Tyrosine metabolism and Tyrosine metabolism p.1 (dopamine). The drugs trioxsalen and monobenzone and the compounds levodopa and ivig have been mentioned in the context of this disorder. Affiliated tissues include liver, thyroid and skin, and related mouse phenotypes are respiratory system and endocrine/exocrine gland. Disease Ontology: An autoimmune disease that causes depigmentation of patches of skin resulting from loss of function or death of melanoctyes.6 Genetics Home Reference: Vitiligo is a condition that causes patchy changes in skin coloring (pigmentation). The average age of onset of vitiligo is in the mid-20s, but it can appear at any age. It tends to progress over time, with larger areas of the skin losing pigment. Some people with vitiligo also have patches of pigment loss affecting the hair on their scalp or body.17 Wikipedia: Vitiligo (pron.: /ˌvɪtɨˈlaɪɡoʊ/) is a condition that causes depigmentation of sections of skin....44 more... |
