The patient asks if the appearance of pigmented islands in vitiligo is a sign of improvement

The appearance of pigment islands means that the condition of vitiligo is gradually improving, and it is very important for patients to persevere in this process, and it is also very important to take care of vitiligo correctly.

Vitiligo should be examined at the beginning of the appearance of vitiligo, and a good examination is the basis for curing vitiligo. Otherwise, if the condition is not aggravated in time, the condition will worsen and even induce complications.

The appearance of pigment islands in vitiligo is likely to be due to the gradual recovery of melanin. If the pigment in the vitiligo disappears completely, the white patches will appear pure white, and if the pigment islands appear again in the vitiligo, it is a symptom of vitiligo.

For vitiligo, there are a lot of drugs, but for children, many drugs have a large one, so many doctors in children with vitiligo will recommend phototherapy, that is, laser, and laser types, among which 308 laser is the choice of many patients, which is a very bitter and effective method, which is very suitable for children and will not adversely affect the body, so parents can rest assured.

Eat more foods rich in tyrosine and minerals, as well as hard-shell foods: pork, black chicken, black sesame seeds, eggs, almond milk, eggplant, black fungus, kelp, black beans, peanuts, etc.

Vitiligo pigment island refers to the appearance of black, follicular, round or irregularly shaped pigment spots in the vitiligo lesion area after a period of scientific **, and the pigment dots gradually combine into a patch to appear pigment islands. The expert group of the Vitiligo Diagnosis and Treatment Center of Yanzhao Hospital found through clinical observation that the formation of pigment spots indicates the appearance of the first effect, and the appearance of pigment islands indicates that the first effect of vitiligo is obvious. Through clinical observation, vitiligo pigment islands generally appear in three forms:

2. ** type pigment island: hair follicular pigment spots appear in the white patch area of vitiligo lesions, which begin to resemble the size of a pinhead, gradually expand, and some can expand to the size of a pea, and the number gradually increases, fusing into each other into a piece. At the same time, the follicular pigment islands and the pigmented patches formed by each other, the white patches between the pigment islands are clear and mixed, and finally completely cover the white spots until the white spots disappear.

It shows that the rapid growth of melanin indicates that vitiligo** has achieved certain results.

1. Peripheral pigment islands: that is, follicular pigment islands appear in the normal ** places around the vitiligo lesions, which begin to resemble the size of a needle and gradually expand and increase, so the pigment deepening band of vitiligo is jagged. The pigment spots continue to increase and expand, merge with each other, and the edge of the vitiligo migrates to the vitiligo**, but the pigmentation at the edge of the vitiligo expands and the migration speed is different, making the vitiligo vitiligo v

This means that the ** of vitiligo is effective, and it should be continued to be adhered to, and it must not be interrupted at will.

3. Mixed pigment islands: ** type pigment islands and surrounding pigment spots appear successively or at the same time, the appearance of mixed pigment islands indicates vitiligo** satisfactory curative effect, vitiligo at the edge and ** at the same time, short course of treatment, fast effect. This period should not be interrupted by misunderstanding**.

Mixed pigment islands indicate a substantial increase in tyrosinase activity in patients with vitiligo and should be continued with consolidation** until recovery.

The edges of the vitiligo change from blurred to clear, and the surrounding pigmentation darkens; Follicular black spots appear on the edge of vitiligo or **, from the needle to the size of millet and mung bean, gradually enlarged and increased, Nanchang Vitiligo Hospital. The edges of the leukoplakia gradually become jagged or wavy and irregularly shrink inward; The edges of the vitiligo appear uniformly pigmented inward and extend to the center.

1. Simple pityriasis.

Pityriasis simplex is a basic disease common in children. The pigmentation is rounded, the border is clear, the edge is elevated, and there are scales, which can easily be confused with vitiligo.

2. Sweat spots are a kind of superficial fungal disease, the damage is mainly pale white, the edges are blurred, and there are scales on the surface, and the fungus is found after microscopic examination, and the onset mainly occurs in the parts where the sebaceous glands are developed.

3. Middle-aged and elderly vitiligo.

Middle-aged and elderly vitiligo occurs on the trunk and limbs of middle-aged and elderly people at the age of 45, with clear borders, oval shape, indefinite number, and no hyperpigmentation.

Therefore, hypopigmentation does not necessarily mean that you have vitiligo, but the possibility of suffering from vitiligo is still quite large, and suspected patients must go to a regular hospital for a comprehensive examination in order to treat the symptoms**.

Hello. 1. Initial effect: the white spots shrink from the periphery inward, the edges of the white spots are gradually clear (the blurred edges are a manifestation of the development of the disease), slightly darker than normal**, and black spots (pigment islands) appear in the white spots.

If the method is correct and appropriate, 65% of patients will see results within one month; More than 85% of the results are effective within 2-3 months, and the effect time is more than 3 months.

2. Obvious effective period: the black spots of vitiligo increase and merge into patches, small white spots disappear, and large white spots are significantly reduced.

3. **: Vitiligo vitiligo white spots completely subsided, the white spots area** can be slightly darker than normal skin color, and it takes more than 3 months to completely return to normal skin color.

I wish you good health and meditation.
