Treatment and Services
Vitiligo itself is not a life-threatening disease, but it can make anyone conscious of its personality and physical looks. Unfortunately, Vitiligo cannot be cured, but numerous treatments can stop it from spreading further to other parts of the body. Most of those treatments also somehow help in restoring your original skin color.
A few types of available Vitiligo Treatment in Lahore, Pakistan are as follows:
Medical Treatment
Light therapy /Phototherapy (PUVA and Narrow Band Ultra Violet B):
This method uses a special kind of light with a definite wavelength and frequency to treat the patient’s affected area. The patient is given timed and controlled exposure to this light in a special chamber. At Cosmetique clinic, our machinery is from USA’s finest brand, which we are using for PUVA and Narrow Band UVB. This treatment is given to those patients whose area of Vitiligo is too large to be handled with creams and lotions. Also, it is for those patients who have failed to regenerate the original color in the treated area. That is the latest therapy applied globally, which is now successfully available in our Cosmetique clinic in Lahore, Pakistan as well.

Punch Grafting
Melanocyte Transplant
It is the most advanced and latest method of Vitiligo Treatment in Lahore, Pakistan. During this process, cells that make color (Melanocytes) are shifted from normal skin to the diseased part of the skin. Once this transfer has occurred, these cells start making a color in the white affected area. Generally, it is the most satisfying method for patients as it does not leave any scars on their bodies.
However, it is also problematic for surgeons to learn and perform. But at Cosmetique clinic, we proudly say that our well-known Dr. Azim Jahangir Khan is the only best dermatologist /cosmetic surgeon in Lahore, Pakistan, trained and properly licensed to perform this surgical technique.
