These are discrete, "sprinkled-on," non-scaly white spots on the limbs of older adults, without a history of prior inflammation.
This is a specific phenomenon of a ring of depigmentation developing around a central mole.
This is a congenital and stable pattern of depigmentation, often with a white forelock, present from birth.
This is a common condition of ill-defined, slightly scaly, hypopigmented patches on the face of children, not necessarily preceded by significant inflammation.
The hypopigmented form of this fungal infection is characterized by finely scaling patches that are positive on a KOH test.
Vitiligo is a progressive, autoimmune condition causing complete depigmentation (chalk-white patches), whereas post-inflammatory hypopigmentation is a partial loss of pigment that often improves over time.
This is characterized by atrophic, porcelain-white plaques, a different texture and pathology.
