Vitiligo is a skin disorder that develops white patches on your skin. These white patches can further progress or even stay stabilized for many years. The course of this skin pigment disorder cannot be predicted. Causes of vitiligo are not known and different theories have been put forward to explain the origination and initiation of vitiligo. Even its cure has not been discovered yet. The treatments that are presently offered just help in cosmetic alteration and do not eliminate the underlying abnormality caused by this disorder. These treatments either help in re-pigmentation or in complete skin bleaching.
Some of you might have found products that offer cure. I want to tell you straight forwardly that these products are fake and everything claimed about these products is also false. Some people have taken advantage of the lack of information currently available about vitiligo by offering people total cure of vitiligo and even money back guarantee of their product. People with vitiligo who are fed up of their white patches get caught in trap of these fraudulent people and get their money wasted by buying these types of products.
I know that these dishonest people act and appear to be professionals. These people create fake testimonials about the successful results of their products and even they create images that show before and after effects. So I would like to suggest you that as no cure for vitiligo is available so you should stop looking for cure and start looking for treatments that offer re-pigmentation or cosmetic camouflaging.
These treatments are found helpful in re-pigmenting the lost skin color. The re-pigmentation produced by these treatments is temporary and is believed to last for two to three years and after that touch up treatments are necessary. If you have vitiligo on a small area that is present on the visible area of skin then you should use cosmetic products like fake tanning lotions, concealers, foundations, skin dyes or any other product that just helps in disguising vitiligo temporarily.
