However, phototherapy is not suitable for all vitiligo patients. For patients in the developing stage, the choice of phototherapy needs to be carefully considered.
Phototherapy can indeed improve the symptoms of vitiligo to a certain extent, and it is especially effective for patients with vitiligo in the stable stage, which can significantly reduce the area of vitiligo, and even make some vitiligo disappear completely. However, there may be certain risks associated with phototherapy for patients in the development stage.

Phototherapy at this time may aggravate the damage, causing the vitiligo to spread more quickly and even cause other complications。Therefore, before proceeding with phototherapy, doctors need to conduct a comprehensive assessment of the patient's condition to ensure the safety and effectiveness of phototherapy.
