My Dear

Welcome to Healthcaremagic!

I have analyzed your problem and feel that it is possible to help you out.
Steroidal creams or lotions work very well on localized vitiligo spots but that probably would require a visit to the doctor.

There is another alternative and that is to use Tacrolimus 0.03% at least once daily. This drug is known to modify your resistance mechanism in a fashion that vitiligo patches start receding.

This drug is comparatively new in the market and has offered hope to several patients in your situation.

I am sure this will work well in your case too.

Best wishes!
