Hi there just wondering if anyone could help. MY Partner suffers with vitiligo. He has a few patches on his back and one on his neck. He is very paranoid about this and wants to keep it covered all the time. We were on holidays recently and he wouldnt go swimming becasuse he would not take his top off. He is asian so has brown skin. The patches are pure white. Does anyone know if you can get this successfully tattoed over? He is at breaking point now and has tried all the creams suggested by the doctor.
Thanks for any help.
