Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if topical crisaborole ointment works to treat vitiligo. It will also learn about the safety of the drug. The main questions it aims to answer are: Can the drug cause repigmentation of vitiligo lesions when used as topical form after microneedling? What medical problems do participants have when the drug used? Participants will: Visit the clinic once every 2 weeks to have the microneedling sessions for 3 months. and also they will have narrow band UVB sessions two times per week.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Repigmentation of vitiligo lesions

    The repigmentation responses will be expressed qualitatively as the following No change (0%-25%) = mild improvement (26%-50%) = moderate improvement (51%-75%) = good improvement (76%-100%) = excellent improvement

    3 months from the start of treatment
