White patches on skin ( vitiligo)

2018-02-26 04:12:59
Hi Doc, I just had a split thickness skin grafting on my vitiligo spot 2 weeks back but it was only partially taken . Can I use vitix gel on the graft so the complete repigmentation is achieved? Or will it be harmful for the graft? Also I have vitiligo on my lips , which cream will work for it?
