Kernel 311nm UVB Home Phototherapy Kit – Complete narrowband UVB vitiligo treatment for home use
The Home Therapy Kit brings together the three most effective tools for vitiligo treatment at home: a clinical-grade 311 nm narrowband UVB lamp, a dermatologically developed topical gel and a daily nutritional supplement — everything you need to start a consistent, evidence-based vitiligo treatment plan.
Each product is designed to complement the others. Used together, they address vitiligo from three directions simultaneously: targeted UVB light, topical melanocyte support and internal nutritional support.

About Vitistop Gel
Why the gel works best with light
Vitistop Gel is rich in psoralens, natural plant compounds that make pigment cells respond more strongly to light. Apply it 30 minutes before every 311 nm NB-UVB session or controlled time in the sun.
In a randomised trial, adding psoralen to 311 nm NB-UVB gave a larger improvement than light alone (VASI score reduced by 29.2 % vs 21.7 %) and repigmentation started earlier.
“Since we added Vitistop Gel to phototherapy, pigment starts to return sooner and the treatment itself gives better results.”

What to expect with Vitistop Gel
When Will You See New Pigment?
Repigmentation happens step by step. With regular use – Vitistop Gel applied before every NB-UVB 311 nm session or controlled sun exposure, 2–3 times a week – many of our customers notice the first new pigment after about 4–6 weeks.
Weeks 1–4: Building the Habit
Your skin gets used to regular light sessions. You will not see much change yet – this is normal. What matters most now is sticking to the treatment plan, session after session.
Weeks 4–6: The First Pigment Dots
New pigment usually starts as small brown dots, often around the hair follicles inside a white patch, or as a darker rim creeping in from the edge of the patch.
Months 2–3: Dots Grow and Join Up
With continued use the dots slowly grow and begin to merge into small islands of colour. The white areas gradually get smaller.
Darker at First? That Is Normal
Freshly returning pigment can look a little darker than the surrounding skin at first. Over the following months the shade usually evens out and blends in with your natural skin tone.
Tip: take a photo of your patches in the same light once a month – early progress is much easier to see side by side. The face and neck usually respond fastest; hands, feet, elbows and knees need more patience.
From the founder
Tried and Tested on My Own Skin
I’m Peter, the founder of VitiligoShop – and I have vitiligo myself. I know the feeling of looking at white patches in the mirror and wondering if anything will ever change. Before we offered Vitistop Gel to anyone, I used it on my own patches together with UVB light. I still remember the day I spotted the first tiny brown dots – and how, week after week, they slowly began to fill in the white areas.
Since then, many of our customers have gone through the same journey and sent us their before-and-after photos. That is why I can recommend Vitistop Gel with confidence: it helped me, it has helped others – and with a regular routine, it can give your skin the chance to bring the colour back too.

Treatment Plan
Three simple steps, used together consistently, make the difference. Follow these steps on every treatment day for the best results.
Every day
- Take 1 Vitistop Tablet with water, preferably during breakfast.
On UVB days (2–3× per week, min. 48 h apart)
- Apply Vitistop Gel to the affected skin areas and allow to absorb for approximately 30 minutes.
- Use the Kernel KN-4003BL2 UVB lamp on the treated areas — start with 12–20 seconds and increase gradually as your skin allows.
You can also apply Vitistop Gel on rest days as part of your daily skincare — the UVB lamp is the only step limited to 2–3× per week.
Increasing UVB exposure time
Increase the exposure time only when any redness from the previous session has completely faded. A mild, gentle redness the day after treatment is the target response — increase by 10–15 seconds per session. If redness persists beyond 24 hours, skip the next session and reduce time by 20%.
Important safety information
- Always wear the supplied UV-protective goggles during UVB treatment
- Never treat the same area more than once per day
- Do not apply Vitistop Gel to broken or irritated skin
- Vitistop Tablets are suitable for adults and children aged 12 and over
- Vitistop Gel is suitable for children aged 3 and over
- Consult a dermatologist before starting if you are pregnant, breastfeeding or on prescription medication
Where Vitiligo Often Responds Best & When to Expect Results
Response to UVB phototherapy varies by body area. Face and neck typically repigment fastest; hands and feet require more patience and consistent long-term treatment.
