Has anyone tried Vitiligo Organics, and is the strong smell normal?

Unfortunately, there isn't specific information available about Vitiligo Organics or feedback from other members about this particular product. The strong smell you're noticing could be from the plant-based ingredients like Cullen corylifolium (Psoralea) and Nigella sativa, which naturally have potent scents.

Since your son has segmental vitiligo and achieved great results (85% repigmentation on his forehead) with excimer laser therapy, it's worth discussing any new treatments with his dermatologist first. This is especially important because:

* The FDA doesn't regulate supplements and topical botanical products the same way it regulates medications
* There's limited clinical evidence for many plant-based vitiligo treatments
* Your son is only 10, and not all treatments have been studied in children

Regarding the scalp area with white hair - hair repigmentation is generally more challenging than skin repigmentation with light therapy. For stubborn areas in segmental vitiligo, some doctors consider surgical options like hair follicle transplants, which have shown success rates of 80-95% in segmental vitiligo cases.

Before continuing with the Vitiligo Organics product, check with your dermatologist about whether it's appropriate for your son and if it might interact with any future treatments you're considering.
