I have white patches on my hand(on biceps) and near shoulder. It's there from many years. Hasn't changed its size. Have taken no medicine yet. Looking for some quick solution like phototherapy or something, please suggest me. Attached is the picture of the same.

Looks that it can be treated well but there is no quick solution.  All therapies would  need at least 6 months. You may take help of online consult option for guided treatment.
