Clinical application of electrocautery needling in treating vitiligo in stable stage
This paper introduces the clinical experience of electrocautery needling (a therapy improved from traditional Chinese medicine fire needling) in treating vitiligo in stable stage. We believe that compared with traditional fire needling, electrocautery needling has the following advantages: lower risk of scald and infection, higher treatment efficiency and less pain feelings. Meanwhile, based on a preliminary clinical observation on the condition of a small sample of patients before and after treatment, it was found that electrocautery needling and excimer laser phototherapy had an equivalent effect on inducing the repigmentation of white depigmented macules in stable stage. The rate of repigmentation of vitiligo white macules mainly depends on the location. Those presenting on the skin of the head and face have better curative effect as they are more sensitive, while those at hands and feet have relatively worse curative effect as they are less sensitive. One proven case is provided.
