Vitiligo is a skin condition where patches of skin lose their natural color. It is caused by the death of melanin cells responsible for the skin's pigment. This condition affects about 1% of the global population and is more prevalent in people aged 10-30 years. It is particularly noticeable in people with darker complexions due to the color contrast.
The pigmentation usually starts from the face, hands, forearm, and feet. Once it starts, Vitiligo gradually spreads to other areas. Along with the skin, the hair in affected areas might also lose color and turn white. Melanin is the chemical responsible for your skin and hair color, and in Vitiligo, this melanin is destroyed by various factors.

No, at present, no one has conclusively shown any dietary factors to be responsible for causing Vitiligo.
Melanocyte transplantation involves separating melanocyte from small piece of skin and transplanting it immediately onto the patches. While it treats a smaller area, it is absolutely safe. In melanocyte culture, cells are separated and cultured in the laboratory using cultured media and growth factors to increase the number of cells.
