Vitiligo is a pigmentation disorder where white patches appear due to loss of melanocytes — the pigment-producing skin cells.
The condition can affect self-esteem and social confidence, especially in visible areas like the face, hands, or feet.
At Laviva Clinic, Vijayawada, we offer advanced, compassionate, and customized care for vitiligo.
Our approach focuses on stabilizing active vitiligo and stimulating repigmentation for visible, lasting improvement.
Treatments are safe for Indian skin tones, carefully adapted to local climate and sun exposure conditions.
Vitiligo is not contagious or dangerous — but it can deeply impact confidence and emotional well-being. It occurs when melanocytes, the pigment-producing cells, stop functioning properly or die, resulting in white patches of skin.
At Laviva Clinic, Vijayawada, we approach vitiligo with precision and empathy, combining diagnostic expertise, advanced phototherapy, medical treatments, and surgical options to restore your skin’s natural tone.
Our dermatologists tailor every plan to the stability of your vitiligo — whether it’s spreading or stationary — ensuring the right treatment at the right time for safe and visible results.
The first step in vitiligo care is to stop the spread of depigmentation and stabilize the skin before starting repigmentation therapies.
Key Points to Use:
Assessment of Activity: Using diagnostic tools and medical history, we determine whether your vitiligo is active or stable to guide the best treatment plan.
Medical Stabilisation: Immunomodulatory medications (both topical and oral) help calm immune activity and prevent new patches.
Identifying Triggers: We help patients identify and manage common triggers like stress, sunburn, or skin trauma that worsen vitiligo.
Once your condition is stable, our focus shifts toward restoring pigment in the affected areas through targeted therapies that stimulate melanocyte regeneration.
| Treatment Type | Procedure / Therapy | Targets & Key Benefits |
|---|---|---|
| Targeted Phototherapy | NB-UVB / Excimer Laser | Stimulates melanocytes in depigmented patches; gold-standard, non-invasive treatment for localized vitiligo. |
| Topical Calcineurin Inhibitors | Tacrolimus / Pimecrolimus Creams | Promotes repigmentation, especially effective for sensitive facial and eyelid areas. |
| Combination Approach | Topical + Phototherapy | Synergistic results for stubborn patches, enhancing repigmentation rate and stability. |
When vitiligo does not respond to medical therapy, surgical and cosmetic options can deliver significant improvement.
Key Options Include:
Melanocyte Transplant (Skin Grafting): Small sections of healthy pigmented skin are transplanted to white patches — ideal for stable, non-spreading vitiligo.
Micro-Pigmentation / Camouflage: Semi-permanent cosmetic blending to match surrounding skin tone for immediate visible improvement.
Depigmentation Strategy (Advanced Cases): In cases of extensive vitiligo, strategic depigmentation can create an even, uniform complexion.
Our dermatologists are highly trained in diagnosing and treating vitiligo, with a strong understanding of Indian skin behavior and pigment response.
We offer the latest Excimer and NB-UVB phototherapy systems, ensuring precise, effective, and safe pigment restoration.
Every vitiligo case is different. Our plans evolve with your skin — from stabilization to repigmentation and maintenance.
Vitiligo management requires patience. Our compassionate team supports you every step, combining medical care with psychological reassurance.

We assess your vitiligo type, stage, and activity level using advanced diagnostic tools.

Active vitiligo is managed with immunomodulators; stable cases move to phototherapy and repigmentation strategies.
