Vitiligo
Living with vitiligo can be a lot to navigate, both emotionally and physically. Our skilled dermatologists are here to help you understand your skin and find a treatment path that works for you.
What Is Vitiligo?
Vitiligo is a chronic skin condition in which the immune system mistakenly attacks melanocytes, which are the cells responsible for producing pigment. When these cells are damaged or destroyed, patches of skin, hair, and even the inside of the mouth can lose their color. The result is a distinctive pattern of pale or white patches that can appear anywhere on the body.
Vitiligo affects people of all skin tones and ages, though it is often more visible on darker skin. While it isn't contagious or painful, it can be emotionally impactful and may affect a person's confidence and self-image. Many patients live with vitiligo for years before seeking treatment, but getting a proper diagnosis and care plan can make a meaningful difference.
There is currently no cure for vitiligo, but effective treatments are available that can slow its progression, restore color to affected areas, and help you feel more comfortable in your skin. Our dermatologists take a personalized approach to vitiligo care, working with each patient to find the right combination of therapies for their skin, lifestyle, and goals.

I’ve been going to Dr Katz office for many years and it’s been amazing every time I go there. My entire family goes here and it doesn’t matter who we see, we still get the same level of care.

I can’t recommend Dr. Ismail enough! After struggling for years with severe eczema and other skin issues, I finally found someone who truly understands and cares. Dr. Ismail took the time to listen to my concerns, created a treatment plan that actually worked and guided me every step of the way. Thanks to her my skin has improved so much and more importantly I feel confident again.
Antoine B.
Very professional. Easy to schedule and sign in. Welcoming place.
Vanessa M.
Love Ally! My kids and I have been seeing her for years at the Swann location. She's patient, answers all your questions, and knowledgeable. Couldn't recommend her more. The check in & check out staff are always sweet & welcoming too.
Ms. M B
Beautiful skin is a must have , so if you’re looking to be your best version of yourself with clear beautiful and glowing skin, you want to consider coming in to see a provider here. My provider Ms. Collella, is very friendly and extremely knowledgeable about skin care and anything else related. I’m very impressed by her, and I am extremely grateful to have found a professional that does such a phenomenal job that strangers stop me to say how much they love my skin, and how it glows. People ask what I use and want to know everything about my skin care routine. My routine starts here for sure. Thank you for your service. Also, the front of the house staff is very kind and personable. I appreciate that very much. It feels good when you’re an actual person not just another patient. They have been so accommodating to me over the years and it’s been magnificent. The best thing is that if I have any questions or concerns I can send a message to the office and I know with great confidence that it will be addressed quickly, as they always are. Thank you again everyone for all you do. Because we only feel as beautiful as we look. 👀

After the retirement of my longtime dermatologist, I sought out a new doctor in my area. After a considerable search, I decided to see Dr. Umer Ansari. I completed my first visit with him today. Dr. Ansari is a young, thorough, and professional doctor. He took time to explain the issues that I presented, and treatment was completed in short order. I was very impressed by his knowledge and approach to treatment. I would recommend him highly to anyone searching for a dermatologist in the northern Baltimore or Towson area. On a final note, I was equally impressed with his support staff, who were very pleasant and accommodating.

Tinuke Aderemi-Ibitola, PA was phenomenal! She was wonderful with my son, worked efficiently without making us feel rushed, and went the extra mile to address our concerns. She immediately put me at ease about the pigmentation returning after his treatment and took the time to explain everything thoroughly. It’s also reassuring to have a provider who specializes in treating skin of color. I also want to recognize Judy, the technician, who was equally kind, professional, and amazing with kids. Together they created such a welcoming, positive environment that made our visit a great experience. We left feeling informed, confident, and very well cared for. Highly recommend!

I have been seeing Brittany Conrad for years and I love her! I appreciate all of her guidance and she’s fun to talk to! She’s an RN, a Licensed Esthetician, and a Certified Aesthetic Nurse Specialist and that makes me feel safe. I found her on the top 100 injectors as well. Go see her, she’s beautiful on the inside and out! I see her for Botox, Daxxify, and lip injections.
Holly J.
This is a wonderful facility with friendly and competent staff.
Holly J.
I loved them! They listened to everything that was bothering me and were able to treat everything while I was already there. That’s exactly the kind of experience you hope for. I’ll definitely be back if I ever have any skin issues in the future. On top of that, everyone was just so kind and welcoming. I’d honestly go back just to talk to them! 😊

I just wanted to take a moment to leave a review and say how amazing the staff here is! I’ve had my fair share of experiences with different dermatology offices, both within this company and outside of it, and this office really stood out to me. Keonna at the front desk was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and efficient. She made the check-in process easy and was just a pleasure to interact with. Dr. Becker was also wonderful! He was very friendly, personable, and talkative in the best way...not overwhelming or annoying at all. He actually took the time to talk with me and made the experience feel comfortable and relaxed. Overall, I had a really positive experience and truly appreciate the staff for making my visit so pleasant. Great team!
Holly J.
Office staff is friendly and Dr. Martin was very thorough
Holly J.
I went to Carolina Skin Care in Pinehurst for MOHS surgery to remove a basal cell carcinoma on my forehead. Dr. Malone and her staff treated me like a king. They made sure that I was comfortable and pain free. On the night of the surgery, my wound began to bleed. The bleeding would not stop so I went to the emergency room. They were unable to stop the bleeding and referred me back to Carolina Skin Care with Dr. Malone and her staff. They were able to stop the bleeding before I left. I greater appreciate the care that I received from Dr. Malone and her staff.
Holly J.
Longtime patient. Results and explanations are easy to comprehend. Visit was on time and staff are very helpful.

We had a great experience with Whitney Colella, PA. She saw all three of our girls. They are all different ages, & she was kind in making them feel comfortable in a way that fit their age. She was knowledgeable & did thorough skin checks. She was gentle with my youngest when helping with a spot on her foot. What meant the most was that she respected our preferences. She offered recommendations that fit what we were comfortable with instead of pushing something else once she listened to our skin care needs. We are so thankful for her compassionate care. Our girls enjoy going to ensure their skin is healthy. We definitely recommend, Whitney. Thank you for another nice visit.

I’ve had other dermatologists over the years before at this company in other locations, but she was by far the best I have had and so glad I found her. Thank you, Heather!

Holly J.
What an outstanding experience this was. It is always alarming when you hear the word cancer. That strikes terror. This facility is just wonderful. They made me feel comfortable. listened, provided all the information regarding the procedure. My cancer is gone and now the healing begins. My suggestion is preparation is everything. Make sure you have all that you need for the first 24 to 48 hrs. Ask questions, write down your own questions. do exactly as prescribed and you will be great. Dr. Monte, his assistants, the front desk are consummate professionals. The waiting area is clean and inviting along with a coffee station. My word to everyone. WEAR YOUR SUNBLOCK. no tanning beds. and contact them if ever needed.
Holly J.

Janet Benton NP is the best at what she does. She’s kind, gentle and a great listener. I can’t recommend her enough.
Holly J.
I am totally satisfied with his medical examinations. However, trying to get in touch by phone became a horror show since he became part of the larger group. The first call said there was a 39 minute wait time. I was able to leave a message to be called later. I was unable to answer the return call, but a message was left on my machine. Unfortunately, the message started skipping and I could not hear all of the new phone number to be called. My second call soon got the recorded message announcing the wait time as one minute. It then kept repeating the one minute wait time message over and over and over. After 5 minutes of this, I hung up. On my third try, the recording said over and over and over that the wait time was the 8 minutes. After getting frustrated again, I was about to hang up when suddenly the call was answered--by a lady who sounded very, very bored with her job.
Holly J.
Everything was great
Holly J.
Everyone was very nice and helpful.
Holly J.
The Staff there is very friendly Dr. Boswell also is a nice person I enjoy her service that is provided. Dr. Boswell make sure her patients are taking care of and meeting their needs. I would recommend her business to family and friends!

Excelente servicio, las doctoras muy amables
Holly J.
I had an excellent experience with Anne Arundel Dermatology. The staff was professional and nice, the PA Ashley showed me she cared and made me comfortable. I would highly recommend.
Holly J.
Today’s visit was excellent. We waited less than 10 minutes in the lobby, and the front desk staff were, as always, very friendly and welcoming. Our appointment was with Dr. Matthew Zook for the scheduled removal of a cyst above our three-year-old son’s eye. Both Dr. Zook and his assistant were incredibly kind, patient, and attentive. As fairly anxious parents with a language barrier, we had many questions, and they took the time to answer every one of them without hesitation, making us feel comfortable and supported throughout the entire visit. The procedure itself was very quick. Our son only shed two tears — honestly, my husband and I were much more nervous than he was! After the procedure, we were given clear instructions for aftercare, a prescription for an ointment, and reassurance that everything had gone very well. We are now waiting for the biopsy results, which should be available in about 10 days. Thank you to Dr. Zook and his assistant for their professionalism, expertise, compassion, and excellent care. We truly appreciate the wonderful experience and highly recommend this practice. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Holly J.
Very wonderful people and beautiful Hearts both the Doctor and her Associates.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding Dermatology Care — Dr. Rachel Orleans This was my second visit with Rachel Orleans, MD, MPH, and I continue to be extremely impressed with the quality of care I am receiving. Dr. Orleans is knowledgeable, thorough, professional, and genuinely attentive to my concerns. She has been doing an outstanding job treating my CCCA, and I am very pleased with the progress of my treatment so far. I appreciate having a dermatologist who is knowledgeable about CCCA and takes the time to explain my treatment and address my concerns. I feel confident in the care I am receiving and would highly recommend Dr. Orleans to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and compassionate dermatologist. ⭐ Dr. Orleans and her clinical care: 5/5 stars! I would, however, give the billing office 3/5 stars. I paid $70.00 upfront in coinsurance/out-of-pocket costs, but my insurance ultimately paid the claim at 100%. According to my records, BCBS issued an EFT payment on July 26, 2026. I would appreciate having someone from the billing department review the account and process my $70.00 refund as soon as possible. Overall, I am very happy with my treatment and the care I am receiving from Dr. Orleans. I hope the billing issue can be resolved promptly so that my overall experience reflects the excellent medical care I have received.

Your Vitiligo Questions, Answered
No. Vitiligo is not contagious and cannot be spread through skin contact or any other means. It is an autoimmune condition that develops from within.
Vitiligo occurs when the immune system destroys melanocytes, the cells responsible for skin pigment. Genetics, autoimmune factors, and environmental triggers all appear to play a role.
There is currently no cure for vitiligo, but effective treatments can slow its progression and restore pigment to affected areas. Many patients see significant improvement with the right care plan.
The progression of vitiligo varies from person to person. Some patients experience gradual spreading over time, while others see little change. Early treatment may help slow progression.
Vitiligo affects people of all skin tones, but it is often more visible in individuals with darker complexions. It is equally common across all racial and ethnic groups.
Treatment depends on the extent of your vitiligo, your skin type, and your personal goals. Your dermatologist will evaluate your skin during a consultation and recommend a personalized care plan.
Results vary based on the treatment and the individual. Phototherapy, for example, often requires multiple sessions over several months before pigment restoration is visible. Your provider will set realistic expectations during your appointment.
