Nanotechnology for Vitiligo — Tiny Tools, Big Hopes (Ep. 49)
Vitiligo has always had a delivery problem. Creams can’t get past the skin’s outer “brick wall,” and systemic drugs hit the whole body.
Now, nanotechnology is changing that — turning microscopic carriers into smart delivery trucks that sneak medicine exactly where it’s needed.
In this episode:
Why most creams fail to reach pigment cells
How nano-formulations like liposomal khellin and ethosomal psoralens boost light therapy
What’s coming next — topical JAK inhibitors, antioxidant particles, even gene-editing patches
Nanotech isn’t a cure, but it’s making current treatments sharper, safer, and more precise.
The future of vitiligo therapy might just fit on the head of a pin.
