What Is Vitiligo?
10. Surgery
If other treatments are not successful, then there are also surgical options available. This includes blister grafting, which involves creating blisters on colored skin, and then transferring the tops of the blisters to the lighter areas. Another procedure is a cellular suspension transplant, which involves putting pigmented cells into a solution and then transferring them to affected areas.
Skin grafting is another potential treatment, which involves transferring small patches of colored skin to an affected area. Procedures like these are usually only tried after other methods have failed due to potential complications. These complications include scarring, irregular skin patterns, and infections.
