White spots on my nose
Hello Doctor,
I noticed white spots under my nose and met with a dermatologist. I have been diagnosed with vitiligo. I have been asked to use cream Pacroma and Flutivate during the day and night respectively. Along with this, I have been taking tablet Nutropatch once a day.
I have been using this in the last ten days, however, I noticed that white spots have increased. Could you please advise how long it takes for the medicines to have a positive effect (stop spreading) on me.
I am extremely worried and anxious.
Thank you.

Vitiligo can be stopped from spreading and regain pigmentation on depigmented patches , topical medications and vitamins you are taking are not enough if your vitiligo is progressive. You should visit our clinic or visit any Dermatologist nearby.

Topical medicines may take 2 months or more for effect to repigment.. but if disease is spreading very fast you can discuss with your dermatologist treatment options to limit disease spread..
