Vitiligo treatment involves various methods to manage depigmented patches on the skin caused by the lack of melanin. Common treatments include topical corticosteroids, calcineurin inhibitors, and phototherapy using narrowband UVB or psoralen plus ultraviolet A (PUVA). Other options include cosmetic camouflage, depigmentation, and skin grafting. The goal is to stabilize or slow down the progression of the condition, although results vary greatly between individuals.
