Hello everyone I'm a 35 year old man with vitaligo. I was diagnosed at the age of 5 my mother spent lots of money on creams and other things. Nothing worked I just chaulked it up as it was meant to be until I saw a young man with it. He had a hood and gloves on his hand but understand it's summer time. So I got a glimpse of his face I said excuse me and I started talking him and said something has to be out there that works. That evening my wife came home with a very knowledgeable dermatologist card so I googled her and decieded to make an appointment. Well she said to try theses UV-B treatments three times a week well as I'm writing this I just completed my 39th treatment and guess what, 90% of it has cleared up. So do some research and I hope this can help alot of people if u have any questions don't hestlitate to ask peace.
