Per-acetylated epigallocatechin-3-gallate (AcEGCG), a fully acetylated derivative of EGCG, a more potent agent for protection of melanocytes from oxidative damage. We present two patients with vitiligo treated with AcEGCG 0.5% cream, who demonstrated skin repigmentation and control of depigmentation progression.

Introduction: Ultraviolet-induced fluorescence dermoscopy (UVF dermoscopy) is a novel diagnostic technique for identifying and diagnosing numerous skin tumors, inflammatory dermatoses, and infectious diseases. The ultraviolet (UV) band has a wavelength ranging from 10 to 400 nm. When intense UV radiation with shorter wavelengths strikes a target chromophore, visible light (VL) with a longer wavelength and lower energy is produced in the skin.
