How is vitiligo caused?

The actual fact is that you can find out what causes vitiligo? The following is a brief introduction to a few points.

One, the relationship with heredity The onset of vitiligo and genetic factors this is certain, but not with every patient must be related. The results of a domestic survey show that the incidence of vitiligo in the relatives of patients is about 3% to 12%, but the exact mode of inheritance has not been completely sure.

Second, the relationship with autoimmune factors It is generally believed that generalized vitiligo occurs on the basis of immunity. A few cases are often accompanied by nail disease, diabetes, baldness, psoriasis and other diseases. In contrast, most cases are due to patients having antibodies against normal human melanocyte antigens, which produce antibodies against normally produced melanin as an anti-source of external invasion, leading to destruction and elimination of melanocytes. Therefore, the impaired autoimmune function is one of the common causes of vitiligo disease.

The relationship with environmental pollution industrial pollutants and agricultural use of chemical pesticide residues, through the atmosphere, drinking water, food, vegetables, fruits and other channels into the human body, resulting in genetic gene mutation, reduce the body’s ability to resist disease, so that the genetic immune function is impaired, resulting in endocrine disorders, vitiligo disease; destruction of neuronal cells, affecting the metabolism of trace elements and other toxic effects with vitiligo disease in recent years The trend of the rise of vitiligo has an inevitable intrinsic connection.

The actual fact is that you can find a lot of people who are not able to get a good deal on a lot of things. According to the relevant data, vitiligo patients in the body and the skin within the amount of copper, zinc content is low. The two substances necessary for melanin synthesis and metabolism (cool and tyrosinase) activity is reduced, so that melanin synthesis is reduced or can not, and prone to vitiligo.

Five, other triggering factors Vitiligo is a limited pigment metabolism disorder skin disease, vitamin C in the process of melanin metabolism, can make the melanin production is interrupted, so that it can not synthesize melanin, thus aggravating vitiligo. In addition, the depigmentation agent of cosmetics also contains a lot of vitamin C, excessive use, also may induce vitiligo disease. Trauma, frostbite, mosquito bites, easily induce inflammatory vitiligo disease. The easy friction parts of clothing wrapped body, waist belt tied too tightly, compressing the skin to affect blood circulation, may also induce this disease.

For vitiligo treatment to choose regular professional dermatology hospital, choose the source root synchronization, personalized precision treatment in order to more effective treatment of vitiligo.
