Mental Health Support
Living with a visible skin condition can affect emotional wellbeing. If you are struggling, please reach out.
Talk to your doctor
Your GP or dermatologist can refer you to a counsellor or psychologist.
Online counselling
Many services now offer therapy by video call, making support accessible wherever you are.
Crisis helplines
If you are in distress, contact your local mental health helpline. You do not need to be in an emergency to call.
Community
The OneVitiligo community is a space to connect, share and learn from people who understand. Whether you have been living with vitiligo for years or have just been diagnosed, you are welcome here.
What to Look For in a Dermatologist
Not all dermatologists specialise in vitiligo. When choosing a doctor, look for:
Experience with vitiligo
Ask whether they regularly treat patients with vitiligo and are up to date on current treatment options.
A patient-centred approach
A good dermatologist will ask about your quality of life, not just your skin.
Access to phototherapy
If light therapy is relevant for you, check whether the clinic offers it or can refer you.
Clear communication
You should feel comfortable asking questions and understand the treatment plan.
