الملخص

Vitiligo is an acquired pigmentary disorder of the skin and mucousmembranes that is characterized by circumscribed, depigmented macules andpatches. Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) is the use of low power visibleand near-infrared monochromatic laser to enhance the body’s natural healingprocesses.The aim of the study is to evaluate new ways for treatment of vitiligo usinglow level laser (675 nm) and conventional light, then to compare the results ofboth of them.This is a prospective clinical descriptive intervention study conducted duringthe period from Oct 2009 to Jan 2015. The study was conducted at theInstitute of Laser, Sudan University of Science and Technology. Thirty ninepatients were involved in this study, seventeen of them received incoherentlight treatment, and twenty two of them received laser treatment.Thirty nine patients were treated by the Omega Xp Mobile low level laser inthis study. Two probes of the Omega Xp device were used, the first probeemitting red laser in a wavelength of 675 nm and 30 mW power, and the otherprobe containing cluster of 60 light emitting diodes (LED) combined togetherand emitting incoherent light of different wavelengths (660 nm, 810 nm , 940nm, 880 nm, 850 nm) at once.The majority of patients treated by incoherent light (64.71%) showed goodrepigmentation response, while the majority of patients treated by laser(50.00%) showed very good repigmentation response. Five patients showeddelayed repigmentation response after stopping the treatment.From our study, we can conclude that the low level laser probe of 675 nm andthe 60 diode cluster probe are very effective and safe in treatment of vitiligo.It’s recommended to use an incoherent light for the treatment of focal andgeneralized vitiligo, while a laser for treatment of acrofacial and focal vitiligo
