Name |
Details |
Intervention |
Electrofulguration assisted dermabrasion |
Electrofulguration of the patch will be done using hyfrecator at monoterminaland low output mode using the ball tipped electrode bent at 30 degree angle.The electrode will be gently skimmed over the surface. |
Comparator Agent |
Manual dermabrasion |
Manual dermabrasion will be done using Manekshaws manual dermabrader until tiny pin point bleeding points are seen on the surface. |

Brief Summary
|
Vitiligo is a common acquired disorder of pigmentation and causes considerable cosmetic disfigurement and psychological distress to patients. Surgical therapy is a good treatment option for stable patches not responding to conventional methods of therapy. The gold standard of recipient site preparation in NCES procedure is manual dermabrasion. However our centre has reported good outcome with recipient site preparation using electrofulguration assisted dermabrasion. In this study we propose to compare the repigmentation rates using the two methods of recipient site preparation. In addition, the keratinocytes in the cell suspension are a rich source of various growth factors which stimulate the melanocytes to produce melanin and cause repigmentation. Hence we wish to correlate the levels of growth factors like SCF, bFGF, Endothelin 1 in the cell suspension with the repigmentation rates post surgery. |
