Why use the gel before light?
Vitistop Gel is rich in psoralens – natural compounds that boost the effectiveness of light therapy. Applied before every UVB session or time in the sun, it helps each session work harder.
VITISTOP GEL 200ML
SPECIALIST TOPICAL SUPPORT FOR SKIN AFFECTED BY VITILIGO
If you’re putting time and effort into vitiligo treatment, you want every step of your routine to count. Vitistop Gel is designed to complement structured light-based repigmentation approaches, helping you get more from the routine you're building.
WHY CHOOSE VITISTOP GEL?
THE ESSENTIAL FIRST STEP IN YOUR VITILIGO TREATMENT PLAN
Applied directly to depigmented areas around 30 minutes before controlled UVB therapy or carefully managed sunlight exposure, Vitistop Gel is designed to be the essential first step in your structured repigmentation treatment plan.
Makes your routine work harder. If you’re already committing time to UV-based treatment, Vitistop Gel is designed to help you make the most of the effort you're putting in.
Simple enough to stick with. Quick application before light exposure sessions makes it easy to add into your vitiligo care routine, which matters when repigmentation takes time.
Targets the areas that matter. Vitistop Gel is massaged directly into white patches, allowing targeted application exactly where you’re actively trying to encourage repigmentation.
Purpose-built formula. With Superoxide Dismutase, Babchi Oil, Copper, Zinc, Vitamin B5 and Vitamin B12, Vitistop Gel is formulated specifically for skin affected by pigment loss.
DERMATOLOGIST INSIGHT
"Supporting the local skin environment can be an important part of a wider vitiligo care routine, particularly when combined with controlled phototherapy under an appropriate treatment plan. By applying targeted support to depigmented areas before light exposure, it may help optimise the skin’s response to treatment."
Dr. Michael Scheibenreif
Clinical Lead & Medical Adviser for VitiligoShop
WHAT RESULTS MIGHT YOU EXPECT?
REPIGMENTATION IS A GRADUAL PROCESS, BUT WITH THE RIGHT APPROACH, VISIBLE CHANGE IS POSSIBLE.
For most people, progress begins subtly. Small areas of pigment often return before broader improvement becomes easier to see with consistent use.
You can see more before and after images here. Your individual results vary depending on treatment approach, consistency, and the areas being treated.
Because you see your skin every day, small initial improvements can be easy to miss. Progress photos every few weeks in the same lighting can help you recognise change more clearly and feel more confident staying consistent with treatment.
HOW TO USE VITISTOP GEL
CONSISTENCY MATTERS WHEN YOU’RE ACTIVELY TRYING TO ENCOURAGE REPIGMENTATION.
Apply a thin layer of Vitistop Gel to clean, dry skin, gently massaging it into depigmented areas around 30 minutes before controlled 311 nm UVB therapy or carefully managed sunlight exposure.
To help your routine work harder:
- Apply before each planned light exposure session
- Do not apply to skin that is already red, irritated, or damaged
- Track progress with photos every few weeks, as early changes can be easy to miss
Suitable for adults and children aged 3 and over.
UVB therapy or sunlight exposure should always be gradual and carefully controlled to help reduce the risk of burning or skin irritation. Light-based treatment plans often begin with a few sessions per week, increasing gradually depending on your individual response.

WHAT’S INSIDE THE FORMULA?
PURPOSE-BUILT FOR STRUCTURED VITILIGO TREATMENT PLANS
Vitiligo is complex, but oxidative stress is thought to be one factor involved in pigment loss. That’s why Vitistop Gel combines antioxidant and skin-supporting ingredients selected for skin affected by depigmentation:
✔ Superoxide Dismutase (SOD) – an antioxidant ingredient explored in vitiligo research
✔ Babchi Oil – traditionally used in pigmentation-focused skincare
✔ Copper & Zinc – skin-supporting minerals
✔ Vitamin B5, B12 & Calcium Pantothenate – conditioning support for daily topical use

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Do I need a UVB lamp to use Vitistop Gel?
No. Vitistop Gel can be used as part of a structured treatment plan involving either controlled 311 nm UVB therapy or carefully managed natural sunlight exposure.
How often should I use Vitistop Gel?
Vitistop Gel is typically applied before planned light exposure sessions rather than as a standalone daily treatment. Most people have light sessions 2-3 times each week.
Can I use Vitistop Gel anywhere on my body?
Yes. Vitistop Gel can be applied to any parts of the body affected by vitiligo, including common areas like the face, neck, hands, arms, and feet. Avoid applying to skin that is red, broken, or irritated.
Can children use Vitistop Gel?
Yes, children can use Vitistop Gel. The product is suitable for adults and children aged 3 and over with depigmentation patches on the skin.
How long does repigmentation take?
Vitiligo treatment takes time, and progress varies from person to person. Most people see noticeable changes within a few months, though subtle early changes may begin much sooner.
Can I use Vitistop Gel on its own?
No, Vitistop Gel is designed to complement structured vitiligo treatment plans involving light exposure, rather than as a standalone treatment.
Do I need a prescription to buy Vitistop Gel?
No, you don’t need a prescription to purchase Vitistop Gel. However, we do recommend discussing prescription medicines Protopic or Opzelura with your GP for additional support.
What Vitistop Gel size should I choose?
This depends on how much skin you’re treating. But because visible progress takes time and requires consistent use, choosing a larger size may offer better long-term value, even if treating smaller areas.
