Vitiligo is an acquired, chronic skin disorder characterized by the progressive loss of pigment-producing cells (melanocytes), resulting in milky-white patches on the skin. These patches can be cosmetically distressing, especially in individuals with darker skin. Vitiligo is widely accepted as an autoimmune condition where the body’s immune system mistakenly attacks melanocytes.
