Hello doctor I'm suffering from vitiligo on the lower lip from 2 months. I consulted doctor and he suggested tarmus gel to apply. But I didn't get any result. Can I use placentex gel?

If the Vitiligo patch is small on your lower lip then we can excised it and closed it primarily without distorting lower lip symmetry and this can be done as office procedure under local Anaesthesia.
