Why Do We Get Depigmentation?

Depigmentation occurs when the skin loses its natural color due to a decrease or loss of melanin (the pigment responsible for skin color). Common causes include:

1. Vitiligo: An autoimmune condition where the immune system attacks melanocytes (cells that produce melanin).

2. Sun Damage:Prolonged UV exposure can destroy melanocytes, leading to white patches.

3. Skin Trauma: Injuries, burns, or infections can cause loss of pigmentation.

4. Genetic Factors: Some people are genetically predisposed to conditions like vitiligo.

5. Chemical Exposure: Contact with harsh chemicals or skin irritants.

6. Nutritional Deficiencies:Lack of essential vitamins and minerals, especially vitamin B12.
