my daughter 4+ has a patch of whitish on her upper eyebrow . The skin specialist told me that the child has got vitiligo and prescribed the following ointments. Mometasone furoate(Elomat Cream) in the morning and Tacrolimus ointment 0.03% in the night. Also folic acid on aulternate days. After two weeks I see very little improvement.
Dear hello. Sorry to hear that your 4 yrs daughter got vitiligo. The disease will not respond in 2 weeks. This is very small-time. So keep your medication on and do not lose hope. Look out for new patches of white color coming elsewhere on the body and make a chart of the change is size of existing patch. If the patch remains stationary for more than 6 months and no new patcChatDoctores, then even if the patch has not changed, melanocyte transfer and cure for patch can be done by plastic surgery. So no need to worry and be optimistic. Bye.
