Hi, welcome to HCM,
you are suffering from vitiligo.
Vitiligo having koebnerization, trauma site is prone for disease.
Natural UVA is only effective in treatment but alone it is nothing. You have to take psoralen tab first and then expose to solar UVA.
All other treatment is on correct line , keep continuing it.
Hope this will help you.
Thanks
