There is only one way to ascertain vitiligo and that is by examining the area. You have to visit a doctor in person for this. And yes. Vitiligo is curable during the initial stages. Even in advanced stages it is curable but it is difficult if the patches are wide spread. In your case let us first diagnose the condition and then decide on the treatment.
