  • To differentiate treatment approaches for generalized (non-segmental) and localized (segmental) vitiligo.

Summary:

  • Phototherapy (narrow-band ultraviolet B) is recommended for generalized vitiligo.
  • Surgery, including autologous skin transplantation, is the primary treatment for localized vitiligo.
