Understanding Vitiligo

White patches can regain their colour.

Vitiligo occurs when the immune system attacks melanocytes — the cells that give skin its colour — leaving well-defined white patches. It is not an infection, it is not contagious, and it says nothing about your health beyond the skin. But its visibility can weigh heavily, and that deserves real care.

At Aliva Aesthetics, treatment works on two goals: stabilising the condition so patches stop spreading, and stimulating repigmentation so colour returns. Early treatment gives the best results — and at every stage, we pair medical care with honest guidance and genuine support.

Causes of Vitiligo

Why pigment cells stop working.

Vitiligo is driven by an autoimmune process with several contributing factors — understanding them shapes a realistic, effective plan.

Autoimmune Response

The immune system mistakenly targets melanocytes, halting pigment production — the central mechanism behind most vitiligo.

Genetics

Around a quarter of patients have a family member with vitiligo or another autoimmune condition, pointing to inherited susceptibility.

Oxidative Stress

An accumulation of cellular stress within melanocytes makes them vulnerable — one reason antioxidant support features in modern care.

Koebner Triggers

Skin trauma — cuts, burns, friction, or severe sunburn — can trigger new patches at the injured site in active vitiligo.

Associated Conditions

Thyroid disorders and other autoimmune conditions occur more often alongside vitiligo — we screen for them as part of good care.

Stress Events

Significant physical or emotional stress often precedes onset or spread, and managing it is a genuine part of stabilising the condition.

Types & Variations

Types of vitiligo we treat.

The pattern of vitiligo strongly influences both its behaviour and its response to treatment — accurate classification comes first.

Non-Segmental Vitiligo — Vitiligo
General

Non-Segmental Vitiligo

The most common form — roughly symmetrical patches on both sides of the body that evolve gradually over time.

Segmental Vitiligo — Vitiligo
Segment

Segmental Vitiligo

Patches confined to one segment or side of the body, often starting younger and stabilising earlier — with distinct treatment options.

Focal Vitiligo — Vitiligo
Focal

Focal Vitiligo

One or a few isolated patches in a single area — where early targeted treatment offers excellent repigmentation potential.

Acrofacial Vitiligo — Vitiligo
Acral

Acrofacial Vitiligo

Patches on the face, hands, and feet — the most visible sites, treated with priority and precision-targeted therapy.

Mucosal Vitiligo — Vitiligo
Mucosal

Mucosal Vitiligo

Depigmentation involving the lips and mucous membranes — requiring specialised approaches and realistic goal-setting.

Stable Vitiligo — Vitiligo
Stable

Stable Vitiligo

Patches unchanged for a year or more — often suitable for advanced options including surgical repigmentation referral.

What Our Clients Say

“A white patch appeared on my cheek and I was devastated. Aliva started treatment immediately — within months colour began returning, and today the patch is barely visible.”

S
Sandhya RaniFacial Vitiligo

“The phototherapy programme was structured and easy to follow. My patches stopped spreading within weeks and repigmentation has been steady ever since.”

R
Ravi TejaNB-UVB Therapy

“What meant the most was the honesty — clear expectations, real timelines, no false promises. And the results have genuinely exceeded what I hoped for.”

P
Padmaja DeviNon-Segmental Vitiligo

“Patches on my hands had made me hide them for years. The excimer treatment brought colour back to most of the area, and my confidence with it.”

I

Frequently Asked

Your questions, answered.

Is vitiligo contagious or dangerous?
Neither. Vitiligo cannot spread to anyone else, and the patches themselves are harmless — though we do screen for associated conditions like thyroid disorders as part of thorough care.
Will my patches keep spreading?
Not necessarily. Many cases stabilise on their own, and treatment significantly improves the odds. Signs of activity are assessed at consultation, and stabilising spread is our first treatment goal.
Can white patches really regain colour?
Yes — especially with early treatment. Repigmentation typically begins around hair follicles as small dots of colour that expand and merge. Face and trunk respond best; hands and feet are slower.
How long does treatment take?
Repigmentation is gradual. Most patients see the first new colour within 2–3 months, with meaningful improvement over 6–12 months of consistent treatment.
Do I need to protect the patches from sun?
Yes. Depigmented skin burns easily, and sunburn can trigger new patches. Daily sunscreen on exposed patches is an essential part of every treatment plan.
Is vitiligo linked to other health conditions?
It can be associated with autoimmune conditions, particularly thyroid disease. We screen appropriately at your first visit so nothing important is missed.
