This case report from Dr Batra's® Homeopathy Clinic describes a 51-year-old male with chronic facial melasma, where individualized homeopathic treatment and integrative skin therapies led to sustained improvement in pigmentation, complexion, and skin texture over time.

This study reviewed evidence suggesting that systemic corticosteroids, particularly in pulse regimens like dexamethasone and betamethasone oral mini-pulse, effectively slow vitiligo progression and support repigmentation, while offering a favorable safety profile compared to continuous therapy.

This source describes vitiligo as a chronic condition marked by the loss of skin pigmentation and discusses leukotrichia, a feature affecting 10% to 60% of cases, which arises from melanocyte loss in hair follicles and appears as well-defined white patches on the skin.

Topical eyedrops may cause eyelash whitening and skin lightening around the eyes.

In this study, researchers observed that individuals with premature graying of hair had significantly higher LC3 gene expression compared to controls, suggesting a potential link between autophagy and the development of this condition, with LC3 gene expression as a possible independent predictor.

In this study, researchers examined thyroid function and autoantibody levels in patients with alopecia areata and vitiligo, finding similar rates of thyroid dysfunction and autoantibody presence in both groups, with no significant differences based on ethnicity or gender.
