The disease manifests itself only on the skin, with the appearance of irregular spots of various sizes caused by the loss of pigmentation.

It is more visible in people with darker skin.

The most common areas are in the armpits, navel, hands and eyes.

There is no evil aspect to the disease.

There are 2 types of vitiligo: A, which is usually hereditary and whose patches are symmetrical and appear at any age; and B, in which the disease appears when the person is still young and spreads rapidly. Type B appears less than type A.

It is recommended that patients maintain a low stress level and constantly take care of their skin.
