Understanding Vitiligo
Insights from Dr RajyaLaxmi Konathan

Understanding Vitiligo
Vitiligo is a skin condition where patches of skin lose their natural pigment, resulting in lighter or white areas. It occurs when the cells responsible for producing melanin stop functioning or are destroyed. Though not harmful or contagious, vitiligo can affect self-confidence and emotional well-being.
At Dr Rajyalaxmi’s Radiant Derma Skin, Hair and LASER Clinic in Hyderabad, we recognise the importance of early assessment and personalised care in managing vitiligo. While there is no single cure, various dermatology treatments can help improve skin appearance and slow progression. Options may include topical therapies, light-based treatments, and supportive skincare routines tailored to individual needs.
Seeking care from a qualified dermatologist ensures that patients receive safe, evidence-based guidance. It also helps rule out other underlying skin conditions and provides emotional support throughout the journey.
If you or someone you know is experiencing symptoms of vitiligo, consulting a trusted dermatology clinic in Hyderabad can offer clarity and support. Dr Rajyalaxmi’s Radiant Derma Clinic is committed to providing respectful, informed, and holistic care for individuals managing vitiligo and other skin conditions.
