I have not discussed this with any doctor because it scares me. However I have the question of whether this is to return the skin color and is it an ongoing treatment? Is it expensive treatment?
Thank you,

Hi qu

Do not take Vit C
Yes!! I also often got mistaken for being way younger than I actually was BEFORE vitiligo
It is discouraging, I was proud of how young I used to look

I’m wondering what other conditions people got after being diagnosed with vitiligo. Or before for that matter. I’ve seen some discussions of psoriasis. What other conditions did you get? Did they come before or after the vitiligo?
Overnight?? Wow. Hang in there dear sis.
If anyone would be so kind as to answer this question. I know everyone’s spots are different and unique, but was just getting a sense of an idea on what’s going on with my hands. Even though this can be different for everyone, this helps me get a bit calm in understanding how it happened to others, plus I LOVE hearing everyone’s story about how it started with vitiligo.

I would like a concealer to blend with my foundation on my face especially around my mouth and neck.
I used to wear dermablend foundation and it gives good coverage. But now that I’m older and I don’t like to wear anything cakey or heavy on my face.
So true first world problem....as part of a performance award in my corporate role, will get to go to a resort in Mexico. I ought to be thrilled. Yet, my anxiety over how to not be "the weird one" and avoid the sun on the beach while trying to be part of the group has me a bit stressed. Self imposed anxiety, right? Anyone else have universal vitiligo and try to "fit in" on a flipping beach? Lol...
Aside from concerns about sun exposure as somone else mentioned, which is valid, I agree with others on the importance of not letting your condition limit you from social events. A counselor offered… read more
