Hi Doctor,
I'm so sorry for such a late response but I've been very busy. Now over the past couple weeks I've managed to fit in a few visits to the dermatologist. Now they say it isn't vitiligo and that it should clear up on its own, and if its gets worse come back in and they will start me on some sort of lotion. But I have a question, is there any correlation between Lexapro (which I am currently taking but have stopped doing so) and skin pigmentation? Thanks again for the help.
Hello,
Application of almond oil or Vitamin E should help. It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.
Hi Doctor,
So I seen a dermatologist today and he basically said the same thing you did. That the pigment should come back. But I forgot to ask him is there any thing that could help speed the process.
Thank you so very much for your time and response! I will consult my doctor about this and will keep you posted :) Thanks again.
It does not look like vitiligo and should become better with time. Sometimes it goes away on its own after exposure to the sun. If it persists, spreads or you notice any new spots then you should get it evaluated from a dermatologist.
