Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This pilot study will consist of 10 adult subjects with symmetric idiopathic guttate hypomelanosis on the lower legs. Subjects will be randomized to which extremity (right or left) will be treated. Treatments with the Xtrac Excimer laser will be performed twice weekly for 12 weeks using the typical vitiligo protocol. Our goal is to determine the effectiveness of excimer laser for repigmentation of idiopathic guttate hypomelanosis. Effectiveness will be graded by the blinded observer scale via photographic comparisons and will be graded by subject via survey every 4 weeks.
