Vitiligo Treatment in Sellersville & New Hope
Expert guidance for changes in skin color.
New areas of pigment loss can raise questions about your health and your treatment options. At Alpha Dermatology, we help you understand the diagnosis and choose an approach that reflects your goals.
Board-certified dermatologist Dr. Daniel I. Shrager and our team provide vitiligo care for children and adults in Sellersville and New Hope, Pennsylvania.
Understanding pigment changes
Vitiligo causes patches of skin to lose their natural color. It can affect the face, hands, body folds, and other areas, sometimes with changes in hair color. It is not contagious.
Not every light patch is vitiligo. We examine your skin, review when the changes began, and discuss whether any additional evaluation is appropriate. Let us know if patches are spreading or if you have other symptoms.
Treatment shaped by your goals
Depending on your age, the areas involved, and how the condition is changing, we may discuss prescription topical medications, targeted excimer laser or other phototherapy options, and treatments that act on the immune pathways involved in vitiligo.
Sun protection and, if you choose, cosmetic camouflage can also be part of your plan. We explain the benefits, limitations, and practical commitment of each option so you can decide what feels right for you.
What to expect over time
Treatment may help restore pigment or limit further color loss, but results vary by person and body area. Improvement is usually gradual, and maintenance treatment may be needed. We monitor changes and adjust the plan as your skin and priorities evolve.
Explore your options with confidence
Whether you want to discuss treatment or simply understand new pigment changes, we welcome your questions. Schedule a vitiligo consultation at either Bucks County office.
