I have had very good luck with UVB and am happy to help in any way I can. There are several "rules" that I have found to be the most helpful. One question: do you own your UVB light or are you going in for treatment? Rule #1 is consistency! I bought my UVB light which allows me to use it on an ongoing basis and when needed. If you don't own you own you might consider getting one as it makes it much easier to use than having to take time to go to some office!
Also, creams used with UVB seem to play a helpful role. You should talk to your doctor about what's best for you. I also take the recommended supplements that provide what is thought to be helpful.
Diet is also key. I eliminated as much sugar as possible and try and eat a lot of fruits and greens (spinach, broccoli, brussels sprouts, etc.).
There are a lot of methods that can be used and everyone seems to be different. The first thing I would encourage you to do is get a UVB light that you can use on your own time (if you don't already have one). Everything else that goes with it (vitamins, diet, cream, etc.) takes experimentation to find what's best for you. You might not get immediate results, but if you keep trying, you will eventually find the right combination of light and creams (outside) with vitamins and diet (inside) that works for you!
Thank you ..James ..I have got my own Uvb light..I add a lot green veg in my diet ...What kind of cream do you add to the treatment? did you keep Your repigment ..how long is it since the repig started.

Hi Hana... I'm sorry it has taken me a few weeks to get back to you. I use two creams together. A lot of people have had luck with Protopic. I had side effects from using it so my doctor switched me to Desonide. It has worked well. After putting on the Desonide I then immediately put on pseudocatalase (pc-kus). I do that twice a day and UVB two to three times a week. Add them to diet and exercise and vitamins and I have had very good luck and started to notice results pretty quickly. In my opinion, there is something that goes on with the Desonide and pc-kus pseudocatalase, combined with the UVB and vitamins, that is getting the results. I say this because Desonide by itself with UVB and pseudocatalase by itself with UVB got slow and minimal results. But when I decided to put it all together it was great to see how quickly I could notice a difference.
With that said, everyone is different. I have experimented and experimented, continually looking for something to show results. This might work for you and it might not. If it does not, don't stop trying things! Google can be your best resource...
Hi Kevin,
I have read a lot of your posts and they seem very interesting. One question, for how long have you made these diet changes and are you seeing any results in terms of repigmentation or stopping the progression of vitiligo?
Thank you Keven ,I understand that we have to treat from innside yet there is no any proper study telling us this shuld be done .. How do you boost ur glutathione Natural way .?
