Vitiligo is a long-term skin condition that causes loss of pigment in patches of the skin. It occurs when melanocytes, the cells responsible for producing skin pigment, are destroyed. The exact cause is unknown, but it is thought to involve a combination of genetic, autoimmune, and environmental factors. Treatment options include topical steroids, light therapy, and skin camouflage.
