NB UVB units are available in India – Delhi and Chennai I know for sure. You can find out from the Daavlin Distributor in India ( Chennai ) if they have sold any units to B`bay hospitals.
Hope that is of help,
Vandana
Thanks rasmi… do keep us posted if they are using it for vitiligo. So many vitiligo people in India – they can conduct extensive trial studies to prove the efficiency of the treatment.
good luck to u..
vandanahi madhu,
sorry to hear it is spreading after so many yrs.. it remains a baffling puzzle why and how it crops up and spreads. sighhh. what medications have u been taking ?? u must control the spread right now.. .i hv seen how difficult it gets to repigment each little spot.
camoflague skin..is make up to cover the spots. at times u do need cover.. too many people too many questions- makes me and the child also very uncomfortable.
i am looking for the address where one can buy this make up.. in singapore,u can check it out..if it suits our indian skin tone. thanks for your address . i will e.mail you as soon as i find the misplaced address of the place in singapore.
good wishes..
vandanahi madhu,
Ohhh u r in singapore.. ! hey, they should be having nb uvb in s`pore… because they do have in malaysia. Try the government hospitals. Davalin has a distributor in Malaysia, maybe there is a distributor in singapore also, u could mail and ask them.. they would know which hospital they have sold their units to.
Sorry to hear about your vitiligo madhu and that u have had it since so long. i know how bad it can be. i am trying my best to treat my daughter./..twice she regained pigment and lost it. trying nb uvb now… besides vitamins. there is no cure as such.. as we all know…
There are so so many vitiligo sufferrers.. u r not alone.. don`t feel so disheartened. ..i know easy to say but…we have to accept. is it extensive for u ??
One doctor here told me.. u can buy camoflague skin ( for indian skin ) from singapore.. can u find out about it please.. i will look for the address and mail u.. if u could give me ur e. mail, please.if i remb right it was some madison avenue.
good wishes,
vandana[QUOTED]
No, this is not available in India. We need to import it from US or UK and its expensive equipment.
None of the clinics have these nb uvb cabins in India.

Hi madhu,I have heard uvb nb machines are there in Indian hospitals as well but they are not being used for treatment for vitiligo, only for psorasis. A doctor himself from delhi told me this. He works at safdarjung hospital in delhi where they have one. I think AIIMS also has a unit.
Where are u located Madhu ?? I am an Indian , living in Malaysia. My daughter has vitiligo. Even I was not familiar with this term coz leucoderma term is limited to India.Vandana

What is the difference between Vitiligo and Leukoderma
[/QUOTED]
Its the same thing. In India, it is known as leucoderma.
Are u from India ??Any idea if nb uvb being used in India for treatment ??vandana

UVB NB is available in Malaysia, i think it should be available in Singapore too. Try the davalin distributor for your area , maybe they know which hopsital has bought one. Infact, a dermatologist told me u get camoflague creams from singapore. Its some place called madison avenue or something… if i remember right.
