Vitiligo spots can be tackled using following approaches:
i.) To even out skin tone by depigmenting: This can be done for unaffected skin areas with hydroquinone so as to lighten them, or even a permanent and vigorous removal method of all the skin pigment can be deployed with monobenzone. But same would require you to be extra cautious regarding sun protection post treatment. Depigmentation process will take about a year to complete.
ii.) Another approach is to restore color to the affected site: or to slow down loss of color due to this condition. Medications and certain light-based therapies can help with this regard, but the results vary and can be unpredictable, they may have serious side effects too.
For most treatments, even if they are successful, the results wont last long enough as new patches will reappear. Your doctor might recommend applying a medication to the skin to help prevent relapse. We are sure that kaya won't disappoint, but if you ever need additional guidance or second opinions, then you can approach our trusted experts - Vitiligo Treatment doctors in Mumbai, do let us know if your city is different!

I need some help not sure what to do. Not so long ago I noticed some wierd looking lines on my lower back, I figured it might be from the seats at school as they have pretty sharp wooden supports that when leaned on might make dents like that. But it has been a couple of weeks and these marks are not going away. Not I'm not so sure if it is the seats cause that would normally be gone In a couple days. If I could compare it to anything they are horizontal lines some longer some shorter, a couple of them and (it might sound a little bizarre) but they look somewhat like stab wound scars or something similar, atlast from my point of view.

I have white patch on my lips

Female | 28

Different factors can cause white marks on the lips. One of the main reasons is a fungal infection named oral thrush. This can happen if the immune system is not strong enough. Besides, it might be pathological damage from bites. To get to this point, it is necessary to do that. If the situation does not get any better, the pain becomes unbearable, and a meeting with the dermatologist is probably inevitable to get a diagnosis and cure the disease.

I have white spots on my face from past 2 months...And now new ones on hands..What is the cause of the same?

Female | 13

It sounds like you may have a skin condition called vitiligo. Vitiligo causes white patches to appear on the skin because the pigment cells stop working. It is not contagious or harmful, but it can cause worry or self-consciousness. There is no cure for vitiligo, but treatments like corticosteroid creams or light therapy may help. It's best to visit a dermatologist for proper diagnosis and management.

I am a 30-year-old female and have acne scars on my face. I would like to know the possible causes and treatment options for these scars. Could a dermatologist provide me with some guidance?

Male | 30

Acne is a consequence of the body's protective work against infection. Acne can be a downer to the shape or softness of your skin. There are some types: atrophic (depressed) and hypertrophic (raised) scars being the major ones. Several treatment options are available, such as topical treatments, chemical peels, microneedling, or laser therapy, all with your skin and the concerns thereof in mind. A dermatologist can diagnose your medical condition and tell you the best method for smoother skin.

Patient Query: Patient Name: Priyanka Age: 23 years Gender: Female Concern: Treatment for acne and pimples on the face. Kindly suggest the best course of treatment, skincare routine, and any necessary lifestyle or dietary changes.

Female | 23

Acne often arises from hormonal changes, excess oil, or bacteria. Start with a gentle cleanser daily, and incorporate a non-comedogenic moisturizer. Using a topical treatment with benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid can be effective. It’s also beneficial to focus on a balanced diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains while reducing sugary and greasy foods. Staying hydrated and managing stress through activities like yoga or meditation can further enhance your skin's health. I encourage you to consult a dermatologist for personalized treatment options tailored to your specific needs.

Male | 52

These symptoms can sometimes be caused by conditions like dehydration, oral thrush, or even a skin condition. It's nice that you took the anti-fungal medicine, however, if it did not work, there might be another problem. Schedule an appointment with a dermatologist so they can evaluate your symptoms and give you the most appropriate advice and treatment. Also, this thing can be relieved by water intake which is very important in this.

Hypertrophic Acne scar on both sides nose only ...

Male | 25

You seem to have hypertrophic acne scars on both sides of your nose. These raised, bumpy scars happen when too much collagen forms during healing. Treatments like laser therapy or corticosteroid injections can help flatten and soften them. However, you must protect your skin from the sun, as sunlight makes scars more noticeable.

I am facing hair loss. I want to confirm if it's androgenic alopecia because I'm planning to start finasteride 1mg oral (3 times a week). Can you help me?

Male | 23

Experiencing hair thinning can be concerning, and androgenic alopecia is a common cause, often characterized by progressive hair loss at the temples and crown. This condition is influenced by genetic factors and hormones. Finasteride can help by blocking dihydrotestosterone (DHT), a hormone linked to hair loss. It's advisable to consult a dermatologist before starting any medication to ensure it aligns with your health needs.

In October my neck get burn blisters made then skin peel off now i have light brown skin with dark patches can you tell me how much time its take to fade or any kaser treatment

Female | 24

It sounds like you've experienced a significant skin reaction, possibly from sunburn or irritation. The brown and dark patches are often a result of healing or hyperpigmentation, which can take several weeks to months to improve. Topical treatments, like hydroquinone or retinoids, may help lighten these areas. Gentle sun protection is also crucial during this time. I recommend visiting a dermatologist for a tailored treatment plan, as they can provide targeted therapies and further assessment. Your skin will gradually heal, so please be patient and seek professional guidance to ensure the best care for your situation.

Female | 37

You might have had a cyst on your back. It is a sac filled with fluid or pus formed under the skin. If infected, it can be red, white, or black, and the skin can be painful. By the way, the liquid is freed when pressed and the cyst is emptied. The doctor should examine it to be sure it is cared for and removed.

Hello, I’m 24 years old and would like to know if I have to be concerned using an aluminum based antiperspirant

Female | 24

It's natural to be anxious over the question of whether aluminum compounds used in antiperspirants are safe for your health. Some are jittery about the information they read which might suggest there is a health issue. However, the majority of studies confirm that there is no such evidence of the relationship between antiperspirants with aluminum and health risks. If you notice any itching, rash, or irritation, try switching to an aluminum-free option.

i randomly got a red lump on my upper back . it’s red but it does not hurt . it’s swore and there’s like a black hole in the middle of it too . it’s also pretty warm . i would think it’s a blackhead but i’m not exactly sure

Male | 24

It seems like you could be suffering from what is known as folliculitis, or skin abscess. These usually start as red lumps that are painful when touched and often contain pus inside. They are caused by bacteria entering the body through cuts on the skin but can also occur near hair follicles if they become infected. It’s important not to try and squeeze them because this could push the infection further into your system; instead, apply a warm flannel or hot water bottle wrapped in a towel over the area several times a day which should help draw out any trapped matter. If this issue continues, you can visit a dermatologist.
