Did you mean Repigmentation?

GlossaryRepigmentation

process of restoring color to depigmented skin or hair

Repigmentation refers to the process by which color returns to areas of the skin or hair that have lost their natural pigment, often due to conditions like vitiligo or alopecia. This can occur naturally or be induced through treatments such as topical medications, light therapy, or surgical procedures, aiming to restore the normal appearance by stimulating melanocyte activity or transplanting pigment-producing cells.
