Problem Surgical management of vitiligo is one of the most remarkable breakthroughs in dermatosurgery in recent times.[1] Popular surgical modalities such as suction blister grafting and autologous melanocyte–keratinocyte transfer require even dermabrasion of the recipient area for optimal outcome.
