Hello, i am a model and a physicaltherapist, i had vitiligo in my chest since i was 16 yesrs old, now it s spreading all over my body, legs arms back chest...
I still feel so nice and i am still modeling all over the world, for international brands and for beauty contest and fashion shoots and portraits plus tv commercials, never had a day when vitiligo was a restriction for my work noting that it was all counting on my physical appearance, i am not making any effort to remove the spots and i am so happy with them, sometimes photographers don't remove them with photoshop and they simply loved the way they look!!,! makes me feel unique, makes me feel more grounded and strong into my values as a human being not just as a physical body but as a spiritual existence, just want to say that what ever happen is for a reason, what was the reason i had that? now i think differently from the time i didn 't have vitiligo, i meditate i teach yoga and i practice it, i used to be a superficial man with a high level of ego that makes me feel insecure all the time, vitiligo made me stronger, deeper in my own values and a grateful person, that made me believe a million time that gratefulness is what makes you happier person regardless of what condition you have... Lot of blessings, Namaste
Well said! I admire your confidence and wish I had the same fortitude. Vitiligo made me more empathetic but more self-conscious as well. One day, I hope my mind can be totally free of its grasp.

I think so! We are unique and, also, we have learned a lot due to our vitiligo.
Thanks Mrad!
