Summary

This study evaluates micrografting using a harvesting and grafting process that has been designed by Momelan Technologies. The overall concept is to harvest several small pieces of skin, each measuring about 1.75 mm in diameter from a normal pigmented area using a commercially available suction blister device, adhere them to a sterile elastomeric substrate and is then place it on a recipient area prepared by epidermal dermabrasion (removal of the epidermis).

Conditions

  • Vitiligo

Interventions

DEVICE

Dermabrasion-Micrografting

Several small pieces of skin, each measuring 1.75 mm in diameter will be harvested from a normal pigmented area using a commercially available suction blister device. This will be attached to a sterile elastomeric substrate and then placed on a recipient area prepared by epidermal dermabrasion (removal of the epidermis).

PROCEDURE

Dermabrasion

Only dermabrasion (removal of epidermis) alone will be done at baseline.
