Patients with vitiligo experience lowered quality of life and significant psychological impact, affecting their daily functioning.
Among 283 individuals studied, many report feelings of social isolation and anxiety due to their skin condition.
Analysis of patient-reported outcomes highlights the need for mental health support in vitiligo management.
The findings suggest efforts should focus on improving social support and coping strategies for affected individuals.
