Brief Summary
Vitiligo is a common depigmented skin disease characterized by destruction of functional melanocyte.The recent therapies to vitiligo are including oral or external glucocorticoids, antioxidants, calcineurin inhibitors or phototherapy. However, long treatment period and unsatisfactory curative effects still exist, which confer long-term psychological burden to patients. As above concerns, it is of great value to explore therapeutic methods that can effectively control disease, improve appearance, relieve patients' pain and improve their quality of life. Current problem is the lack of a vitiligo life quality evaluation scale with Chinese characteristics for us. Therefore, it is necessary for the investigator to compile a vitiligo quality of life scale that is simple, feasible and applicable to China's national conditions. Meanwhile the reliability analysis must be carried out to bring better quality of life assessment tools to patients with vitiligo in China. Previous studies recommended that CapulinTM showing a good cover effect on vitiligo, but the effects of camouflage on the QoL of patients with vitiligo in Chinese population is unknown. Thus, the investigators undergo a randomized open-label controlled study to estimate the effects of CapulinTM on QoL of patients with vitiligo.
