Predicting the onset of vitiligo or its course is difficult. To optimize the chances of treating white spots, you should consult as soon as possible as soon as you notice the appearance of depigmentation spots . The treatments offered by the dermatologist today are based on treatment combinations of phototherapies (UVB, puvatherapy, heliotherapy, natural UV), topical treatment, corticosteroids, topical immunomodulators and now the oral intake of V-SOD from GliSODin. The success of the treatments administered also depends on the affected areas: the white spots on the hands and feet are generally recalcitrant, the vitiligo present on the face and the body is treated better.

Repigmentation of the skin is a long process that requires between 6 to 24 months of care. Sun exposure, or phototherapy, is essential in the treatment of re-pigmentation. If it is not considered as a treatment strictly speaking, the specialized cosmetic make-up constitutes an invaluable help. The treatments prescribed for patients with vitiligo serve three purposes.

The treatments aim both to block the loss of melanocytes, to re- pigment the skin and to prevent any recurrence.
