Abstract
Vitiligo does not have a baneful influence on life and function of the body directly, but is a serious disease in that most patients suffer from difficulties in social life and considerable stress. We cured a vitiligo patient with a few depigmented patches in front of the left ear using aqua-acupuncture with hominis placenta and psoraleae fructus extract. Since this is just one case report, more case studies and research will be necessary.
