Effective and Advanced Vitiligo Treatment in Bangalore
Vitiligo is a skin condition in which pigment-producing cells stop working, which causes white patches on the skin. At Derma Solutions in Marathahalli and Whitefield, Bangalore, our dermatologists offer personalized vitiligo treatment aimed at restoring pigmentation. Each plan is based on the type, extent and stability of your patches.
Treatment options include topical therapy, phototherapy, targeted excimer laser and, for stable vitiligo, surgical procedures such as punch grafting and non-cultured melanocyte transplantation. Many patients benefit from a combination of approaches. Your dermatologist will explain realistic outcomes, the number of sessions and the long-term care your skin needs.
Personalized care for white patches
Every plan starts with a detailed assessment of the type, location and stability of your vitiligo. Your dermatologist then recommends the most suitable combination of medical, light-based or surgical treatment, with regular reviews to track repigmentation over time.
Topical Therapy
Prescription creams to support repigmentation.
Excimer Laser
Targeted light for localized white patches.
Surgical Grafting
Melanocyte transplant for stable patches.
In non-cultured melanocyte suspension surgery, an ultra-thin skin graft is taken from a normally pigmented area such as the thigh. A melanocyte suspension is prepared through a specialised lab process and transferred to the prepared white patch. The dressing is usually removed after 7 days, and the best results show 3–6 months after surgery.
Advanced vitiligo treatment options
Phototherapy uses controlled UV light over multiple sessions to stimulate pigment cells, while the excimer laser delivers focused light to smaller, localized patches. For stable vitiligo that hasn't responded to medical treatment, surgical options like punch grafting and melanocyte transplantation let a small area of pigmented skin treat larger patches.
Excimer Laser
Focused UVB light targets localized white patches while sparing surrounding healthy skin.
Melanocyte Transplant
A small pigmented skin sample can repigment larger stable patches with a natural look.
Long-Term Support
Regular follow-ups, sun protection advice and maintenance plans support ongoing results.
Got questions? We've got answers!
Many patients see meaningful repigmentation with the right treatment, but the response varies with the type, location and stability of the patches.
Surgical options like melanocyte transplant are generally for stable vitiligo that hasn't responded well to medical or light-based treatment.
It varies. Light-based treatments need a series of sessions, and surgical results usually show 3–6 months after the procedure.
Avoid excessive sun exposure, apply sunscreen regularly and follow your dermatologist's instructions between sessions.
