Can you actually treat vitiligo at the Dead Sea? 

It turns out that you can. While vitiligo treatment is always a case by case basis, climatotherapy at the Dead Sea has proven to be a safe and effective way of treating your spots.

The Dead Sea therapy is also effective in treating Vitiligo – a condition in which small or large areas of skin lose their natural pigment.

After the first four week course and sometimes even prior the end of treatment, white patches start to show new pigments, beginning the healing process that continues several weeks after the patient returns home.

In most cases Climatotherapy has to be repeated for several years until the condition is eliminated.

Occasionally, rapid and complete repigmentation can occur after a single visit at the Dead Sea.

Bathing in the Dead Sea water for 20 minutes twice a day prior to sun exposure is generally recommended.
