When considering options for vitiligo, patients often weigh the benefits of surgery against medical treatments. Surgical interventions, such as melanocyte transplantation, can offer quick and noticeable results, particularly for localized areas. However, these procedures may not be suitable for everyone.

On the other hand, medical treatments like topical corticosteroids, phototherapy, and depigmentation therapy are non-invasive options that can effectively manage vitiligo over time. They may be better suited for those with widespread vitiligo or those seeking gradual improvement.

Dr. Hera Tabassum, a leading dermatologist in Roorkee, at Dr. Hera’s Skin & Hair Clinic, specializes in both surgical and medical approaches. She provides personalized consultations to help patients choose the best treatment based on their unique needs and skin type.
