Abstract
Background: Vitiligo is an acquired skin condition characterised by enlarging and becoming more numerous over time by white and depigmented patches. It is attributed to the absence and depletion of melanin in the epidermis of healthy melanocytes. The disease can be cosmetically disfigured and the skin is also more vulnerable to sunburns. It affects 0.1-2 percent of the world 's population, and its aetiology is uncertain regardless of gender and ethnicity.
 Aim: Analysis of morphological dermascopic trends in cases of vitiligo and access to the operation of the disorder, prognosis and as a diagnostic method in the choice of modality of care.
 Materials and Methods: In 200 diagnosed cases of vitiligo, which contains stable vitiligo, unstable vilitigo, guttate vitiligo and vitiligo treatment cases, white light dermascopy is used in imaging patterns.
 Result: Trichrom, marginal hyperpigmentation, marginal reticular pigmentation, perifollicular hyperpigmentation in stable vitiligo and salt pepper pattern, starburst pattern in unstable vitiligo is seen on inspection with dermascopy, erythema, perifollicular pigmentation, reticular pigmentation seen in stable viiligo, comet tail pattern seen in Koebner phenomenon.
 Conclusion: Bad prognosis was demonstrated by erythema, telangectasis, perifollicular pigmentation, reticular pigmentation patterns: marginal hyperpigmentation, perifollicular hyperpigmentation, leucotrichia, marginal reticular pigmentation, comet tail. Dermascopy is therefore used to track treatment activity and disease prognosis, and certain trends can also recommend adjusting the modality of treatment.
 Keywords: Dermascopy, Stable vitiligo, Unstable vitiligo.
