Hi mads,
Thanks for writing in.
Effective treatment are now available for vitiligo or white spots.
Few oral medications and few newer lotions like pseudocatalse are now available .
Also phototherapy and excimer laser are effective in treating white spots.
Consult a good dermatologist for taking these treatments.
Hope this helps.
Regards.
