ABSTRACT
Even though vitiligo affects only the skin, a significant number of patients suffer from psychological problems that affect their quality of life. Several studies have shown that vitiligo has a significant psychosocial impact, including features such as anxiety, depression, and sleep disturbances. One of the primary concerns of patients with vitiligo is the presence of lesions on visible areas like the face. While there are quite a few treatment options currently available for vitiligo, they are limited by fact that most of them take time to produce results. Camouflage can be very useful in addressing the psychosocial aspects in such cases. It is especially useful in areas like the face and difficult-to-treat areas like the hands and feet.
