Medicine Description vitivera 90%
Vitivera 90% Cream is a medication that combines the properties of aloe vera and pectin to promote skin health. Aloe vera is known for its soothing and moisturizing effects on the skin, while pectin serves as a gelling agent that can help in forming a protective barrier on the skin's surface. This combination can aid in enhancing skin hydration and may support the natural healing process of the skin. While aloe vera has been suggested to facilitate the regeneration of skin cells and may indirectly influence melanin production, the exact mechanism of how it interacts with the pigmentation process in vitiligo remains under investigation. The cream is primarily used as a topical adjunct in a comprehensive vitiligo treatment plan, potentially enhancing skin condition but not directly inducing melanin synthesis in a targeted manner.
