Vitiligo leads to loss of skin color in patches. It can affect any part of the body including hair and insides of the mouth. It occurs when cells producing melanin stop functioning or die. Since melanin is responsible for skin and hair color, death or non-functioning of these cells leads to loss of skin color. This disease may affect all types of skin though it is more noticeable in dark-skinned people. It is neither life-threatening nor contagious, but it can be stressful and discomforting.
