Abstract

Narrowband-Ultraviolet B is an efficient and secure vitiligo therapy, although, the course of care also needs a lengthy period of time that can present a possible danger of multiple side effects and non-compliance by patients. Study attempted to analyse whether the addition of PRP therapy has any advantage over the conventional NBUVB therapy in fastening the repigmentation rates in cases of Vitiligo. One injected with PRP and the other with control injections of normal saline. The study included a number of 32 patients and 64 lesions. Study found that addition of PRP has no statistically significant advantage in treating patients of stable vitiligo. The statistical tests do not show a significant advantage over the control group.
