Psychosocial Effects of Vitiligo: A Systematic Literature Review

Khaled Ezzedine et al.

Summary: The systematic review on psychosocial burden in vitiligo found that patients commonly experience comorbidities such as depression, anxiety, feelings of stigmatization, sleep disturbance, relationship difficulties, and avoidance behavior. The prevalence of these comorbidities was significantly higher in vitiligo patients compared to healthy individuals. Factors associated with a higher burden included female sex, younger age, and greater body surface area involvement. Treatment strategies should focus on addressing these psychosocial issues to improve patients' well-being.
