Suction Blister Epidermal Transplantation
Autologous Epidermal Transplantation
Suction blister epidermal grafting is a minimally invasive surgical approach that uses the patient's own epidermal tissue to restore pigmentation in stable vitiligo lesions.
Minimally Invasive
Suction is used to create an epidermal blister at the donor site.
Repigmentation
Melanocyte-containing epidermal grafts are transferred to depigmented areas.
Treatment Process
01
Donor Site
Healthy skin is selected as the donor area.
→02
Blister Formation
Controlled suction separates the epidermis from deeper skin layers.
→03
Epidermal Harvest
The epidermal graft is carefully collected.
→04
Graft Placement
The prepared graft is transferred to the vitiligo lesion.
→05
Healing & Repigmentation
The graft is secured while repigmentation develops gradually.
Clinical Consideration
Suction blister epidermal grafting is generally considered for selected patients with stable, localized vitiligo. Patient selection and surgical planning should be determined by a qualified physician.
