Abstract

The article presents a new method called no-laboratory epidermal cell paste (NLEP) for treating stable vitiligo, a skin disorder characterized by depigmentation. The method is simple, cost-effective, and does not require specialized equipment. The study involved three patients who experienced significant repigmentation and good color matching after 12 weeks of treatment. The article also discusses the psychological aspects of cosmetic procedures and the potential for excessive treatments to become a substance-related disorder. It emphasizes the importance of understanding patients' motivations in order to provide effective guidance during consultation and treatment. [Extracted from the article]
