How much does it cost to cure vitiligo?

The cost of curing vitiligo generally ranges from 300 to 500 yuan. However, due to the different severity of each patient's condition, different treatment methods chosen, and different hospital charging standards, the specific cost may vary.

Severity of Condition:

If the patient has mild vitiligo with a small area of white patches and no other discomforting symptoms, the treatment will be relatively easy, requiring less time and cost. However, if the patient has severe vitiligo with a large area of white patches, even generalized large-area white patches, the treatment difficulty will increase, requiring more time and higher cost.

Chosen Treatment Method:

Currently, there are many clinical treatment methods for vitiligo, including medication, phototherapy, and depigmentation therapy. Medication mainly includes glucocorticoid drugs and calcium-modulated phosphatase inhibitors, such as prednisone and tacrolimus ointment. Phototherapy utilizes narrow-spectrum mid-wave ultraviolet radiation to promote melanocyte production and achieve treatment goals. Depigmentation therapy involves using specific instruments to remove pigment from the skin, restoring it to its normal color. Different treatment methods use different equipment and consumables, resulting in different prices. It is recommended that patients maintain good daily habits, avoid staying up late, and ensure sufficient sleep time to enhance their immune system and facilitate disease recovery. Additionally, they should pay attention to a balanced diet, including vitamin-rich foods such as apples, oranges, and tomatoes, to supplement the body's nutritional needs and alleviate symptoms to a certain extent. If any significant discomfort occurs during this period, it is necessary to seek medical attention promptly to avoid delaying the condition.
