Vitiligo is very chronic skin condition. The most effective tip to stop further increase in your white spots are to leave any stress.
Mostly patients of vitiligo spent a lot of money to get rid from these spots. But could not found desired results further more has to suffer by severe side effects of the treatment like laser technology, photo therapy and skin surgery etc.
I think home remedies should be the first preference for the vitiligo. Because most home remedies for vitiligo are very effective. These have low cost, effective and render no side effects.

I have had vitiligo since I was 3 years old I am currently 19 and it has taken over my body. It is completely harmless and ANYONE can wake up one morning and just have it. There are several things to do for it If you wish to spend the time and money. First you can always use a make up to cover it up. Second I have found a gel online that I have used and it really did work.. I was shocked and in disbelief.

I started using it and didnt entirely follow the instructions, since i have the "spots" on practicly every part of my body i just put it all over as opposed to only the spots. well it lightened my skin the darker parts to match the white. My skin was one color! I have never seen that before. I then realized that all the years I have tried to change and hide who I was and was I was going through. I thought I had it bad everyone was staring at me anywhere I went, i was self concious about my appearance more then other teenage girls. It became appearant to me that I could look just like everyone else.. That got me thinking.. if I could go through life and be confident with who I was looking how I do and embracing it ((believe me it was one of the hardest things to overcome in my lifetime)) but I thought that if others could see me going through life and accepting myself then maybe they could try to feel better about what they had.

I have also been through countless light therapy sessions, topical creams nothing but the Dermabest novatil has even come close to the best results. Dont waste your time and money with doctor visits if you're sure it vitiligo.
