Although vitiligo has traditionally been very difficult to treat, a
new breakthrough surgical treatment is expanding options for
practitioners and patients.
Standard treatments depend on the severity of the condition and
the patient’s feelings of disfigurement. Cover-up cosmetics work
well for some people. Other more sophisticated forms of treatment
include gradually developing color back in the depigmented areas
(repigmentation) by PUVA or other ultraviolet light treatments, but
this is extremely slow and intensive, often requiring several
hundred treatments.
This new form of treatment, which involves surgically
transplanting melanocytes into the white areas, is most successful
in patients with stable vitiligo over less than 30% of their body
surface area. It complements medical therapies in achieving
complete and sustained repigmentation and is rapidly gaining
popularity in all major centers.
This is the first book available which describes this major
advance in detail.
* * Explains the new treatment of surgically transplanting
melanocytes into the affected areas of the skin to provide
dermatologists and surgeons with the latest state-of-the-art
information
* * Written by the international leaders who pioneered this
treatment
* * Presents all the latest information on the topic, eliminating
the need to search through multiple sources for specific data
