Normally people assume two meanings of the term ‘Vitiligo Cure’. One is the complete annihilation of Vitiligo and the other is getting back the original color of the skin.
As far as total annihilation of the disease is concerned, there is no such vitiligo treatment that can completely eradicate the basic abnormality caused by vitiligo. Vitiligo is probably caused by a variety of factors interacting in specific ways. Research has advanced the understanding of the physical and psychosocial aspects of vitiligo, but the causes and cure are still unknown.
Vitiligo is a non curable skin condition. It does not mean that one can not get rid of white patches caused by vitiligo. There are many treatment procedures and medicines available in the market for the improvement of Vitiligo. These treatments have longer durations and their progress is slow so patients require motivation, encouragement, and empathy.
These treatments do not offer vitiligo cure. A question may arise in your mind that if these treatments do not offer vitiligo cure then what solution do these treatments provide. Instead of providing vitiligo cure these treatments either re-pigment or completely wash off the pigment from the skin to even out skin tone.
All difficulties in cure for vitiligo are due to the lack of information about vitiligo causes. However it is confirmed that melanocytes activity is the major factor for pigmentation in skin. This is the fact that all present cures for vitiligo focus on melanocytes, in terms of stimulating their production or enhancing their melanin production ability.
A sound hurdle in vitiligo cure, emotional stress, it is essential to combat stress due to vitiligo if your want to get rid from this skin disorder. It is the emotional anxiety that may increase the size of white spots. According to many theories regarding vitiligo causes stress is also a trigger of vitiligo.
What are the treatment options for vitiligo?
Treatment options normally fall under four categories:
Skin camouflage – helps in disguising white patches using colored creams and lotions.
Treatments that aim to reverse the changes in the skin.
Treatment to completely de-pigment the skin (skin bleaching).
Sunblock and other means to protect the de-pigmented skin.
Beware of fake Vitiligo Cure Products?
As there is no vitiligo cure, many imposters have taken advantage of the lack of information available about vitiligo and have started selling fake vitiligo cure products. These people use social engineering to sell their products.
According to American Vitiligo Research Foundation (AVRF) there is no cure for vitiligo, the objective of treatment is to stop or slow down the progression of de-pigmentation and to re-pigment the skin.
So you must avoid products that offer vitiligo cure and look for treatments that provide repigmentation.
I personally thought that Michael could surprise us with his new look, that is having his skin color back, or different features, as it was said that his return would definitely shock the whole world.
But it seems that there is no cure for vitiligo. So this aspect has to be ruled out.
