Quote from: "~Souza~"I am not sure about Prince and the vitiligo. It looks like lights from the glass of a watch for instance. He is pretty young to develop vitiligo already...
Actually Souza, there is no set age to develop Vitiligo. It doesn't always come out when you're an adult (in MJ's case).
Have you ever heard about Darcel De Vlugt?
TAKEN FROM http://www.vitiligos.com/people-with-vitiligo/famous-people/
"Darcel De Vlugt, from Islington, North London, was born to black parents from Trinidad but she turned white because of Vitiligo (Vitiligo causes the immune system to attack the pigment cells). The first signs of vitiligo appeared when Darcel was only of five years. Her parents, Peter and Charmaine, say the girl had some white spots on the forehead and the forearm.
This disease started progression and in just two years she had developed vitiligo on her arms and legs too. Progression of vitiligo continued and turned 80 percent of her body white and by the time she turned seventeen her skin had completely turned white.
Doctors say that they haven't seen this type of case before in which a person completely turns white because of vitiligo.
The teenage years were the hardest because that was when my skin was really patchy. I would get called all kinds of things, such as spotty or dalmatian.
I missed out on so many normal social things that teenagers do because I was so self-conscious. It is very hard looking like a white girl when I was born black. I had identity crises all the time."
