What is Vitiligo Surgery?

Vitiligo surgery is a surgical approach to restore pigmentation in areas affected by vitiligo. It involves transplanting healthy pigment-producing cells (melanocytes) from unaffected skin to the depigmented patches. This is only recommended for patients whose vitiligo has been stable for at least 6-12 months.

Vitiligo Surgery Techniques We Offer

Punch Grafting: Small full-thickness skin grafts transferred to depigmented areas
Split-Thickness Skin Grafting: Thin layer of skin transferred for larger patches
Melanocyte Transfer: Cultured melanocytes applied to affected areas for widespread patches

Is Vitiligo Surgery Right for You?

Vitiligo surgery may be right for you if you have:

Stable vitiligo (no new patches for 6+ months)
Patches that haven’t responded to medical treatment
Limited, localized areas of depigmentation
Realistic expectations about gradual repigmentation
