Frequently Asked Questions
How does Vi Hide conceal vitiligo?
It conceals the appearance of white patches caused by vitiligo by adding color to areas lacking pigmentation. This
helps reduce the contrast between the affected areas and the surrounding skin, making the overall skin tone appear
more even.
Does Vi Hide permanently treat vitiligo?
No. It does not permanently treat vitiligo. Instead, it helps improve the external appearance of the skin by covering
areas that have lost pigmentation. Continued use or reapplication is required to maintain the result.
How long does the color produced by Vi Hide last?
The duration of the color varies depending on the individual's skin type, the application site, and the application
method. The color may gradually fade over time as the skin cells naturally renew, so reapplication may be necessary to
maintain the desired appearance.
Is the color affected by water and washing?
The color generally does not disappear simply from exposure to water or normal washing once it has fully developed.
However, frequent washing or vigorous rubbing may accelerate fading. Therefore, it is preferable to handle the treated
areas gently.
