How does Vitiligo appear, develop and expand?
The course and the severity of the pigment loss differ with each person. In many cases, Vitiligo begins in a small area. Over time, other spots may appear, while existing spots may grow larger. Some people notice that their Vitiligo stays the same for years or even decades, and then suddenly new areas of depigmentation may occur. Occasionally, Vitiligo patches will repigment spontaneously, all by themselves, with no treatment whatsoever. Many people with vitiligo do notice this happening at some point in their lives.
