Hello,
Welcome to H C M,
According to you, white patches on skin known as Vitilligo is caused by loss of pigmentation in -skin due t o distruction
of pigment forming cell.
The cause is not known but some disturbance of immune system.
There is no known way to prevent. or cure Vitilligo. but several method including cosmetics, UV light therapy,
corticosteroid cream. can use to improve the skin colour.
IN AYURVEDA can cure vitilligo. but takes a time.
Some ayurvedic medicine can use for your daughter
1.Bakuchi oil for external use
2. bakuchi ghan vati. -1 tab two times/day
3. Brihat manjisthadi kwath. 1tea spoon three times/day
I hope the given information is helpful to you.
Thank you.
Wish a good health.
