If Vitiligo gets worse it will spread all over. Example Ponnam Prabhakar if he/she is lucky like CBN ( gaddam kinda ) which can usually controlled thru medicines .

 

Pelliki yes, I have heard and seen cases where if either of the parent has vitiligo people usually don't show interest in that proposal.

I am not sure if english medicines have a full cure for this skin condition. Else ponnam prabhakar ki paisal emaina takkuva na ?

You can try homeopathy or aurvedic of do more research

Phototherapy is considered a second-line treatment for vitiligo.^[1] Exposing the skin to light from UVB lamps is the most common treatment for vitiligo. The treatments can be done at home with an UVB lamp or in a clinic. The exposure time is managed so that the skin does not suffer overexposure. Treatment can take a few weeks if the spots are on the neck and face and if they existed not more than 3 years. If the spots are on the hands and legs and have been there more than 3 years, it can take a few months. Phototherapy sessions are done 2–3 times a week. Spots on a large area of the body may require full body treatment in a clinic or hospital. UVB broadband and narrowband lamps can be used,^[27][28] but narrowband ultraviolet picked around 311 nm is the choice. It has been constitutively reported that combination of UVB phototherapy with other topical treatments improves re-pigmentation. However, some vitiligo patients may not see any changes to skin or re-pigmentation occurring. A serious potential side effect involves the risk of developing skin cancer, the same risk as an over-exposure to natural sunlight.

Ultraviolet light (UVA) treatments are normally carried out in a hospital clinic. Psoralen and ultraviolet A light (PUVA) treatment involves taking a drug that increases the skin's sensitivity to ultraviolet light, then exposing the skin to high doses of UVA light. Treatment is required twice a week for 6–12 months or longer. Because of the high doses of UVA and psoralen, PUVA may cause side effects such as sunburn-type reactions or skin freckling.^[26]

Narrowband ultraviolet B (NBUVB) phototherapy lacks the side-effects caused by psoralens and is as effective as PUVA.^[1] As with PUVA, treatment is carried out twice weekly in a clinic or every day at home, and there is no need to use psoralen.^[26]
