    Nothing at home will help it. I have light skin and can use sunless tanning location to make mine less noticeable. If u have dark skin sunless wont'worj. Maybe try to find a dark makeup that will help cover it. It's very hard to find the color that matches your skin tone. I just got to the point I don't even try to cover it anymore. Mine has spread to 80% of my body and is now on my face. It's so hard knowing there is nothing u can do to cure it. I gave up a few years ago..

      Sorry to hear that man. I'm hoping mine doesn't spread or stays stays on my feet and back (in places that aren't visible).

      Have you tried steroid cream? My friend also has vitiligo but by using steroid cream it's become less visible

    Steroid cream never worked for me..... I did years with Puva treatments with Trisolaroen and it worked until they took the medication off the market....Reading about Vitiligo Green but would like to know if anyone has had any success with it.
