VITILIGO Treatment In Lahore Pakistan (LEUKODERMA / Phul- Behri)
These markedly white spots are not caused by drinking milk with fish. Sour food or Vitamin-C does not cause leukoderma. These are the common myths spread by non qualified medical practitioners. In fact every human being has an immune system (body's defense system) to fight off infections caused by germs. Sometimes this defense system starts working against the cells which produce the skin color. These cells are called melanocytes (pronounced as MAY-LANO-SITES). In the beginning of the disease, the defense system just paralyzes the melanocytes and they stop making the color. At this stage they can be salvaged with the proper treatment. If not treated early, the defense system can permanently damage these cells, making the treatment difficult.
The treatment usually consists of medicated creams, treatment with ultraviolet light in your dermatologist�s clinic, and sometimes oral medications with ultraviolet light. Cosmetique is equipped with some of the finest Ultraviolet treatment machines in the world made.

Nowadays, many people suffer from a skin problem involving white skin patches on different body regions named Vitiligo. Some others even assume that it cannot be treated or its treatment is too costly to afford. But that is not the case nowadays. Also, all the myths around this skin problem are untrue.
However, according to the best skin specialist in Lahore, Pakistan, Dr. Azim Jahangir serving at the Cosmetique clinic:
Vitiligo is an auto-immune disorder rather than a genetic or inherited problem that can be treated in several ways. In this skin condition, an individual's immune system starts attacking the melanocytes responsible for producing melanin in the body and disables them from making color naturally.
Diagnosis: The diagnosis of Vitiligo can be made by doing a biopsy of the discolored white skin region by taking into account the number of functional melanocytes at that site. Somehow wood lamp also helps diagnose vitiligo regions.
Vitiligo Treatment: Fortunately, now there are several Vitiligo treatments available worldwide. And successfully, Pakistan is one of those countries offering the best vitiligo treatments. A few popular vitiligo treatment procedures include
a) topical medications
b) intravenous injections
c) narrowband ultra-violet-B light
d) 300nm laser light
e) JAK inhibitor medicines
f) melanocyte transplant.
The Vitiligo treatment usually takes six months to 1 year, depending on the areas of Vitiligo and the patients' immune system. However, its treatment is essential because skin color is a great blessing of Allah. It prevents the body from harmful ultraviolet radiations of Sunlight and thus reduces the chances of skin cancers.
So, if you see any Vitiligo white skin patches symptoms on your body, immediately consult a reliable skin specialist in Pakistan. That is crucial for preventing melanocytes from getting destroyed completely.
Can taking "Fish with milk" together cause Phulbehri or Vitilligo?
No. This is the most common myth in India and Pakistan. No such correlation occurs and it is a completely false notion. In fact, in many Scandanavian countries, fish is cooked in milk and if such was the case, all the Scandinavia will be having vitiligo by now..
Beware of false claims and and
baseless notions and myths
Can taking "Vit-C or sour food" cause Phulbehri or Vitilligo?
No. This is another common myth in subcontinent and Pakistan. No scientific evidence exists to support this myth. In fact, Vit.C is needed as one of the integral factors to make the pigment or color of the normal skin. So go ahead and take Vit-C or any other sour food that delights you without worrying about it causing vitiligo or Phubehri. .
