When did Michael Jackson develop vitiligo?
The skin disease Michael has is called Vitiligo. Vitiligo is a skin condition resulting from loss of pigment which produces white patches. Michael was diagnosed with it in 1986. When he first saw signs of the disease, the patches were barely noticeable. But as he became more stress out from the pressures of the media, the white patches started growing rapidly. At one point, he had a big white patch on his right hand, and that's why he started the one sequenced glove trend. If you look at pictures of him in the early 80s, you can see spots on his face where he tried to cover the white patches with makeup You can also see that he had extremely red cheeks, a common symptom of vitiligo. Today, you can see Michael has a smooth complexion. He probably did the procedure most Vitligo patients do, which is to depigment their whole body, so they won't look like a dalmation lol. So all those stories about Michael bleaching himself are FALSE! It is IMPOSSIBLE to make your skin go from completely brown to completely white.
