How to treat vitiligo effectively?

At present, there are many treatment methods for vitiligo, which can confuse newly diagnosed vitiligo patients and make them unsure how to choose a treatment method. Today, I will talk to you about some mainstream methods for treating vitiligo:

1. Drug therapy

During the rapid development of vitiligo, systematic use of glucocorticoids is necessary to quickly control the condition; Calcium regulated phosphatase inhibitors, vitamin D3 derivatives, and low concentration photosensitizers are generally more effective when combined with phototherapy.

2. Traditional Chinese Medicine

Traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes targeted treatment, which is generally divided into four types: rheumatism and heat stagnation, liver depression and qi stagnation, liver and kidney deficiency, and stasis and obstruction of collaterals. If you want to take traditional Chinese medicine treatment, you must find a regular hospital to prescribe the right medicine and not blindly believe in folk remedies.

3. Phototherapy Phototherapy

It is the method of using ultraviolet radiation to irradiate the skin, kill abnormal lymphocytes, stimulate and activate melanocytes, promote tyrosine synthesis, and ultimately achieve color restoration. It is the therapy with the highest probability of improvement. Basically all types, all types can be used for a long time and can be combined with previous drug treatments.

4. Transplantation therapy

This may not be effective for other therapies, but it should be noted that transplantation therapy is suitable for patients with a stable period of more than one year and is prone to homomorphic reactions, so careful selection is necessary. In addition, phototherapy is also necessary for supplementary treatment after transplantation.

5. Decolorization therapy

This method has become a reverse therapy, suitable for more than 95% of patients on the body surface, and is not recommended until the end. The safest and most effective method currently is phototherapy, and the earlier it is detected and treated, the better the effect.
