Senior Member Domino Posted February 10, 2021 Senior Member Share Posted February 10, 2021 Hi I’m new here. I thought I add this as I think it’s interesting. Hair transplanted from a pigmented area onto vitiligo patches restores pigment. I have not been diagnosed with vitiligo myself but have serious discoloration on my head, as I have light skin it’s not so bad in winter but when I get some sun the contrast is very noticeable. Also not really sure that this would benefit me in any significant way.https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4728902/#!po=1.13636 The dark skin guy is from the study. Second picture is me.

Senior Member Dillpickle123 Posted April 22, 2022 Senior Member Share Posted April 22, 2022 @Eugenix Hair Sciencesi know Eugenix they’re dermatologists there too would getting a transplant there and the temples affect the vitiligo positively?
