Vitiligo Surgery SST (Skin Seeding Technique) is a vitiligo treatment method developed by Dr. Kim Dong-seok of Eureka Dermatology.
It is also expressed as a rice planting-type full-thickness skin graft, in which melanocytes are finely removed from the skin where they normally exist and implanted in the vitiligo area.
Since it is treated with finely removed skin tissue, it is possible not only for curved surfaces but also for eye areas that were difficult to operate, and it is a treatment that can be operated on by children because of the low pain.
In addition, SST is Eureka's own trademark name registered by Eureka.
It is a surgical method developed by Dr. Kim Dong-seok himself and even registered a patent himself.
In other hospitals, it is also described as a micro-punch implant.
