There are several treatment methods for neck vitiligo.
One common approach is phototherapy. Narrow - band ultraviolet B (UVB) phototherapy can stimulate the melanocytes (pigment - producing cells) in the skin to produce more melanin and gradually reduce the white patches.
Topical corticosteroids are also used. These creams can suppress the local immune response in the affected area and may help to halt the progression of vitiligo and promote repigmentation.
In addition, topical calcineurin inhibitors can be beneficial. They work by modulating the immune system and have shown some effect in treating vitiligo on the neck. Some patients may also consider micropigmentation or camouflage cosmetics to cover the white patches on the neck and improve appearance while other treatments are ongoing.
