Vitiligo

Vitiligo Surgery

Vitiligo is a skin condition that causes loss of pigment in patches due to the absence or malfunction of melanocytes—the cells responsible for skin color. While medical treatments like creams and phototherapy help some patients, others with stable vitiligo may benefit from surgical solutions to restore pigment in affected areas.

At Sara Aesthetic Clinic, we offer advanced vitiligo surgical treatments tailored to your needs. Our goal is not just cosmetic improvement—it’s about helping you feel more confident and whole in your own skin.

What is Vitiligo Surgery?

Vitiligo surgery involves transferring healthy pigment-producing cells from one part of the body to areas where pigment has been lost. These procedures are suitable for patients with stable vitiligo (no spread of new spots for at least 6–12 months) who haven’t responded to non-surgical therapies.

We offer the following techniques:

1. Punch Grafting

Small circular grafts (2–3 mm) of healthy pigmented skin are transplanted to vitiligo patches.
✔ Suitable for small, well-defined patches
✔ Cost-effective and straightforward
✔ Minimal downtime

2. Suction Blister Grafting

Blisters are created on pigmented skin using suction, and their tops are transferred to depigmented areas.
✔ Ideal for sensitive areas (face, neck, genital region)
✔ Natural-looking results with minimal scarring

3. Split-Thickness Skin Grafting

A thin layer of healthy pigmented skin is placed over the affected area.
✔ Used for larger patches
✔ Reliable pigment spread over time

4. Melanocyte Cell Suspension Transplantation

An advanced technique where melanocytes are separated from donor skin and applied as a solution to affected areas.
✔ Suitable for irregular or larger patches
✔ Even, natural repigmentation
✔ Minimal scarring and faster healing

Who is a Good Candidate?

You may be eligible for vitiligo surgery if:

  • Your vitiligo is stable (no progression for 6–12 months)
  • You are not responding to creams or light therapy
  • You’re in good general health
  • You have realistic expectations
  • You’re emotionally ready for a gradual improvement process

Vitiligo surgery is not recommended for patients with spreading or active vitiligo.

Recovery & Results
