Brief Summary
Vitiligo is an acquired disorder of the skin and mucous membranes characterized by well circumscribed depigmented macules and patches that occur secondary to selective destruction of melanocytes (Zhang et al., 2009). Generalized vitiligo is the most common clinical presentation and often involves the face and acral regions (Alikhan et al., 2011).

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
1- Re-pigmentation : that will be subjectively rated with a previously reported scoring system (Ghiya et al., 2016).
G0, \< 25% repigmentation (poor) * G1, 25-50% repigmentation (fair) * G2, 50-75% repigmentation (good) * G3 \> 75% repigmentation (excellent).
up to 3 months
Secondary Outcomes (1)
The VASI percent change
every month for 3 months
Other Outcomes (2)
- Frequency and types of side effects.
3 months
- Patient satisfaction. The patient overall satisfaction will be assessed after 6 months according to Wong and Vasconez (2011). Overall satisfaction:
3 months
Study Arms (3)
Group A (Tacrolimus group):
EXPERIMENTALfractional CO2 laser therapy and Tacrolimus ointment 1
Group B (Calcipotriol group):
EXPERIMENTALfractional CO2 laser therapy and Calcipotriol ointment
Group C (NB-UVB group):
EXPERIMENTALfractional CO2 laser therapy and NB-UVB twice weekly
Interventions
3 sessions of fractional CO2 laser one month apart Patients will start treatment Tarolimus ointment twice daily for 3 months.
3 sessions of fractional CO2 laser one month apart Patients will start treatment Calcipotriol ointment twice daily for 3 months.
