A potassium hydroxide (KOH) scraping is done, in which some of the scale from the spots is placed on a slide, drops of postassium hydroxide are placed, and the result is examined under a microscope. If the spores and hyphae of tinea versicolor (spaghetti and meatballs) appear, the diagnosis of tinea versicolor is confirmed. Did you have a positive KOH?</span><br />
<span style="color: white; font-size: xx-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: white; font-size: xx-small;">If so, you might return to your physician for oral medications. Sporonox (keaconazole) being themost effective. Take the pills two hours before exercise, sweat and do not shower until the next day. Take the pills with a colar prodcut and it works better.</span><br />
<span style="color: white; font-size: xx-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: white; font-size: xx-small;">If this has been done, you might have vitliligo as you imply. Usually the white spots are symmetirc or oinear. They often begin on the hands or around the eyes andmouth.</span><br />
<span style="color: white; font-size: xx-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: white; font-size: xx-small;">If you are South American you might have the infectious disease yaws.</span><br />
<span style="color: white; font-size: xx-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: white; font-size: xx-small;">Finally, there is an entity of idiopathic guttate hypomelanosis. This means we do not know what causes it but white spots develop all over the body. A biopsy can confirm this.</span>Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2842196175734602460.post-27587335887255010622014-02-08T06:32:00.002-08:002014-02-08T06:32:23.204-08:00Benoquin NYC New York NY<span style="color: white; font-size: xx-small;">If you have truly extensive vitiligo and feel that it is so disfiguring that total eradication of your pigment would be warrented, Benoquin 20% cream ( Monobenzone) would work.</span><br />
<span style="color: white; font-size: xx-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: white; font-size: xx-small;">I suspect that this is the cream that Michael Jackson used to remove his pigment. He then probably covered his skin with Vitadye ( or a similar agent) to give it some color.</span><br />
<span style="color: white; font-size: xx-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: white; font-size: xx-small;">This is a very tricky to compound to use and should ONLY be used if you desire total pigment destruction. It may migrate and destroy pigment in areas not intended. It is not meant to treat melasma, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, lentigines, etc.</span><br />
<span style="color: white; font-size: xx-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: white; font-size: xx-small;">The company that makes it, in fact, had so many law suits when Benoquin was not employed properly, that you must write a letter and fill out a form to obtain it.</span><br />
<span style="color: white; font-size: xx-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: white; font-size: xx-small;">The effects are permanent so be sure that this is the way you want to go. The few times I have used it on patients the results are quite dramatic.</span>Unknownnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2842196175734602460.post-296896887277696442014-02-08T06:30:00.003-08:002014-02-08T06:30:56.146-08:00Excimer laser works for Vitiligo nyc new york ny<span style="color: white; font-size: xx-small;">Vitiligo is a very stubborn condition, so while an ointment like protopic might help very slowly over time with continued use, I think most people would like to see improvement faster than that. Also, protopic is greasy, so you could probably only use it at night. Excimer is twice a week and requires at least 10 sessions, but would show quicker improvement.

<span style="color: white; font-size: xx-small;">Excimer laser using 308nm is definitely the new gold standard for treatment of vitiligo, particularly if one did not respond well to NBUVB phototherapy. One can expect partial repigmentation after 8-10 treatments; full repigmentation is possible after 25-30 treatments, though nothing is guaranteed. Go to psoriasi.org, type in your zip code and look for board-certified dermatologists who may have Excimer laser.</span></div>

<span style="color: white; font-size: xx-small;">Camouflage products such as Dermablend can look very inconspicuous without a caking. I would look into the possibility of permanent medical tattooing. You need to do some research, however, to find a qualified professional, medical tattooing facility in your area that uses high-grade tattoo pigments. If you go this route, I would also recommend a test-spot in an inconspicuous area to ensure that you do not develop allergic reactions to the tattoo pigment.</span></div>

Approximately 2 out of every 100 people develop vitiligo and often the onset is before the age of 20. Vitiligo appears to be an autoimmune process where the immune system of the body destroys the melanocytes (pigment producing cells). The progression of vitiligo varies from person to person and will be more noticeable in darker skinned people or when the skin tans.
