Spanish Company Launches New Treatment For Skin White Patches

Bella Aurora Labs, Madrid, has launched Repigment, a new line formulated to treat white patches on the skin. The range is the culmination of a more than four-year collaboration with Italian dermatologist and vitiligo specialist Dr. Matteo Bordignon, said the company.

“As experts in the study of melanocytes and skin pigmentation, we can offer a solution to skins with abnormal pigmentation. Approximately two per cent of the global population has this skin condition which, although it is not painful, has a psychological impact,” said Jordi Segura, R&D director at Bella Aurora

The new Repigment line consists of a topical cream and a food supplement that prepares the skin for exposure to the sun or for booth radiation sessions.

The cream is designed to be used twice daily to the affected areas along with one capsule with a glass of water with a meal to protect the skin. The treatment must be accompanied by exposure to natural sunlight or artificial UV light under the supervision of a health professional. It is recommended to follow the treatment for at least six months or until the area is fully repigmented.
