Childhood Vitiligo:
Is It Curable?


Pediatric vitiligo can be completely cured if treated early with excimer laser treatment and SST skin grafting, which are transplantation treatments, while maintaining the skin's immunity, because the skin cells are younger and less exposed to toxins and wastes than those of adults.
Eureka's 30 years of experience and rich clinical experience will help improve vitiligo.

Why do vitiligo spots spread so quickly?

Factors that worsen vitiligo

Vitiligo is a skin disease that usually occurs in people in their teens and twenties, but it is also common in children under ten years of age.

※ Among all vitiligo patients, the probability of childhood vitiligo is more than 25%.

In children, spots spread faster than in adults, so even if left untreated for just 3 months, they can rapidly spread to other areas.
The following are factors that worsen vitiligo.

  • 정신적인 스트레스

    Mental stress

    In about 70% of skin damage cases, there is a factor that causes mental stress. In the case of vitiligo patients, excessive stress can worsen vitiligo.

  • 물리적인 요인

    Physical factors

    Trauma, surgery, frostbite, burns, mechanical skin irritation, and pressure can worsen vitiligo.

  • 염증성 요인

    Inflammatory factors

    Many patients with vitiligo develop or become severe in the spring, late spring, and summer. Since it is related to ultraviolet rays, care must be taken to protect against ultraviolet rays.

    Childhood vitiligo, which causes greater emotional scars, what is the treatment that can show quick results?

    Treatment of Vitiligo in Children

    If you miss the early treatment period for vitiligo, the treatment period will be very long.
    Therefore, it is very important to treat it in the early stage.
    In the past, it was difficult to treat vitiligo, but recently, with the advancement of medical technology, it has become possible to treat vitiligo in various ways.
    Are you continuing to receive phototherapy or excimer laser treatment without any improvement?
    Are you continuously receiving prescriptions for "steroid ingredients" that may have side effects?
    If non-surgical treatment does not improve, surgical treatment is a way to treat vitiligo more quickly.
     
    Eureka for Vitiligo Treatment!

    What's special about Eureka Vitiligo Treatment

    Surgical treatment for childhood vitiligo was a very difficult treatment method until recently.
    The treatment effect was good, but the pain was so severe that even adults had difficulty trying it.
    However, SST skin grafting is so painful that it can be done by children as young as 4 years old.
    (It is possible even if they are old enough to receive injections.)
    It can shorten the treatment period for vitiligo, and it can be performed on any part of the body.
    In particular, the treatment effect of the face is currently over 90%.
    With 30 years of experience and Eureka's integrated vitiligo solution, it can be treated cleanly.

    Skin Seeding Technique

    Unlike general skin grafting, the skin is harvested one by one and transplanted as if planting seeds or rice seedlings, so transplantation and survival are possible even in joint areas or curved surfaces, and since there is almost no bleeding or scarring during the procedure, it can also be performed on the face.

    With the cell regeneration ability of skin grafting and the treatment that induces pigmentation deep into the skin with the Velocity Excimer Laser, it is possible to effectively treat vitiligo in a short period of time. It is applied only to the affected area, so there is no damage to normal skin, and pregnant women and children can also receive Velocity Excimer Laser treatment.


  • Even in cases where there is no improvement with other treatments, the likelihood of cure increases when combined with SST skin grafting.

    What is SST?

    SKIN SEEDING TECHNIQUE

    SST is a trademarkof Eureka.

    The vitiligo surgical method SST (Skin Seeding Technique) skin grafting that you know
    is a vitiligo treatment method developed by Director Dong-Seok Kim after extensive research, and is
    a unique trademark of Eureka that has been registered as a trademark by the Patent Office. I think it is the most widely used vitiligo surgical treatment method at present.

    Eureka Director Kim Dong-seok personally performs the procedure!
    As of February 2025, the number of SST surgery cases has exceeded 9,000!

    Eureka's transplanting treatment, SST skin grafting

    피부이식술이란?
    Eureka's Skin Grafting Surgery + What is Epidermal Growth Factor?
    Eureka's vitiligo surgery method, SST skin grafting, is a treatment method developed by Director Kim Dong-seok after a long period of research. It involves extracting skin with a diameter of 0.4 mm to 0.5 mm from normal skin and transplanting it to the vitiligo area. Unlike general skin grafting, Eureka's SST skin grafting is done by carefully collecting skin one by one as if planting seeds or rice seedlings, so it is possible to transplant and survive even in joint areas or curved surfaces. There is almost no bleeding during the procedure and the scar is not deep, so it is possible to perform the procedure on the face.
    In addition, epidermal growth factors or platelets extracted from autologous blood are used on the transplanted skin to help the transplanted normal cells survive and help them regenerate around them.
    The smaller the punch size of SST skin grafting, the less scarring there is on the face. Currently, when the punch size is 0.4 mm to 0.5 mm, there are almost no problems due to scarring.
    As the punch size gets smaller, the skin tissue needs to be treated more precisely, and advanced experience and know-how are required to increase the skin survival rate.
