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.

How to use
- Apply the gel to the affected areas and wait about 30 minutes before 311 nm NB-UVB phototherapy or controlled sunlight.
- Starting exposure: adults 30 seconds, children 15 seconds. If there is no redness after the previous session, increase by about 20 seconds. The target is a mild pinkish redness only.
- 2–3 sessions per week, at least 48 hours apart. If the skin stays red, wait until it has fully recovered.
