What It Is
Split thickness skin grafting is a surgical procedure used to treat stable vitiligo by transferring a thin layer of pigmented skin from a donor area to depigmented patches. It is useful for larger areas where medical therapy has not produced enough repigmentation.

Evaluation of disease stability

Harvesting a thin layer of pigmented skin
Preparing the vitiligo patch to receive the graft
Secure placement and dressing
