Platelet-Rich Plasma, A Promising Adjunctive Treatment for Vitiligo: A Case Report

The document describes a case where a 39-year-old male with non-segmental vitiligo achieved significant repigmentation after combining platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections with narrow-band ultraviolet B (NB-UVB) phototherapy. Initially, after 17 sessions of NB-UVB alone, there was minimal improvement, but with the addition of PRP, over 50% improvement was observed in two months, and over 75% after a six-week break. This case suggests that PRP may boost the effectiveness of phototherapy in treating vitiligo and is a safe treatment option, though the authors recommend further large-scale studies to confirm these findings.
