How to use vitiligo in a sentence?

  1. Denise Chamberlain:

    PROMISING TREATMENT FOR VITILIGO SKIN CONDITION At one point, the Indiana woman was so fearful of leaving the house without her makeup she became depressed, even considering suicide, because she hated her looks. It made me into a person who didn't want to be noticed. That mask was everything for me.

  2. Denise Chamberlain:

    According to the Mayo Clinic, vitiligo occurs when pigment-producing cells (melanocytes) die or stop producing melanin — the pigment that gives your skin, hair and eyes color. There are some treatments that may restore color to the affected skin, but it does not prevent continued loss of skin color or a recurrence. Between the ages of 10 and 40, Denise masked her face and hands with a blanket of foundation and concealer to hide her vitiligo. I wore it every single day and I learnt how to perfect it so people who looked at me wouldn't even know I had it on.
