Discolorations of the skin, such as vitiligo, were recognized thousands of years ago. White spots caused by vitiligo and other disorders have caused significant social opprobrium to those disfigured by these pigmentary disorders, throughout history and still in the present day. Treatments have been desperately sought with only partial success. Recent advances suggest that vitiligo and other pigmentary disorders might soon be curable.
皮肤变色，如白癜风，在数千年前就已被人们认识到。白癜风和其他疾病引起的白斑，在历史上乃至如今，都给那些因这些色素沉着紊乱而容貌受损的人带来了极大的社会耻辱。人们一直在拼命寻求治疗方法，但仅取得了部分成功。最近的进展表明，白癜风和其他色素沉着紊乱疾病可能很快就能治愈。
