| "My 12 yr. old daughter has had depigmentaion to her eye lids, side of her mouth and chin since she was 8 yrs.old. Initially, it seemed to coincide with being away at camp for the first time. She had nightmares while away and it wasn't until she returned home when we first noticed her eyelids lightening up. Pehaps it was stess related! Steroid and non steroid creams from our skin specialist did not work! I first learned about Novitil on the computer and decided to try it even though I was skeptical. I have been applying it diligently to her face according to directions for the past month and am so pleased to report that she has over 70% of those areas regigmented, we are sooo glad we gave your product a try and hope that eventually all these areas will be completely repigmented. Thanks so much for this product, I certainly will give this product information to our skin specialist. Once these areas repigment is it possible that other areas of depigmentation will show up?" |

| Note: In regard to Ellen's question: though this is a possibility, it is important to note the following: (1) If other areas of depigmentation showed up, early treatment, as soon as they appear, is particularly effective and tends to substantially reduce treatment time; (2) A Wood's lamp examination by a dermatologist may help detect affected areas even before they are visible to the eye under normal light conditions. This allows treatment at an even earlier stage; (3) A preventive approach may help reduce the possibility of new depigmentation.

| "I have suffered from Vitiligo for most of almost 30 years. It has hampered me like no one would believe. It has caused me to miss out on the most normal of activities out of self preservation of being embarrassed. I hate when people ask me questions. I found your product on the internet. I decided this was it. I was going to think positively and believe this would be the cure for me. I have been using Novitil for about 3 weeks. I am so happy. I have already started to repigment. I am using my Novitil 2x/day as directed diligently. I have noticed after my white spots turn pink, most are not going back to white...they are fading into light brown and, in some places, little brown freckles are appearing. Under my arms, in the white areas, there are larger brown spots that are appearing and even a few that have already started to join together. I have noticed in my white spots, under my arms, on my hips and in my inner upper thighs, the brown colors have schematically taken over...there are areas where there are darker browns flowing with lighter browns and some large dark spots...it's like someone is taking a paint brush and is shading my brown back in! It's amazing. I have had one spot almost completely disappear from my chest! I will continue to report my progress. I thank you for giving me a product I know is working. Everyday, I find myself looking in the mirror and directly self-examining to see what new changes are beginning! It's all too exciting!" |

| "Update: "I was always told there was no medical treatment...so I never received any...there was no hope. There was that PUVA lighting but my insurance company would'nt cover it b/c treatment of Vitiligo is considered cosmetic. My condition would sometimes stay dormant for years and then all of the sudden I would lose pigment in a huge area rapidly. It's just so strange. Also, when I was a teenager, my spots went away entirely, only coming back after childbirth. I have almost always had one or two spots. But, Vitiligo has taken over my body within the past couple of years. As for additional progress, I can't believe how much your product is working for me. I am having dramatic changes with small brown spots, almost like freckles all over my body...in just about every white area...mind you, I have been using your product less than 2 months. I have only been using the product in conjunction with the sun, laying out in a bikini. But, I am going to move forward and start using a tanning bed in addition to the sun right now...and will eventually use that in replacement to direct sun when the weather dissipates this fall. I will continue to keep you updated." | |

| | Note: (1) Regarding light treatment, many health insurance companies will initially reject treatments for Vitiligo. They may also offer to cover only part of your treatment. To learn more about Vitiligo light treatment and insurance coverage please click here. (2) It is not uncommon to observe worsening of Vitiligo during pregnancy or after childbirth. (3) When using both natural sunlight and artificial UV light (UVA, UVB), exposure time should be carefully adjusted as directed by a professional in order to avoid overexposure.

| "My wife started the treatment with Novitil Gel and although she couldn't do the treatment quite properly because here for us is a transition time and the stress problem persists, nevertheless the results were unbelievable. The repigmentation process of the skin started and continued until the white patches gained the skin color back. Today the skin regained its color, except a few very very little spots left that still need treatment. Today I ordered another bottle of Novitil. Thank you very much for this product, because of it she can smile again, she regained the confidence in herself, so she can continue her life to reach her goals." |

I (must say very skeptically) started to use your product in the middle of July and by the end of the sunny season at the middle of September I gained about two third of pigment back. I am very pleased with results and I thank you for this product. I noticed that without the sun the results are poor or none so I decided to brake the treatment until spring. Am I doing any harm?"

| Note: During winter, or whenever sunlight exposure is not an option, artificial UV light, if appropriate, can be used instead of sunlight. If this is not possible, the use of Novitil with infrared light ("heat lamp"), and sunlight whenever possible, is recommended in order to maintain continuity of treatment.

| "I tried before MELAGENINA (IN CUBA), MELADININE (both oil and pills), BERGAMOT OIL, TOPICAL STEROIDS, PUVA, PSORALEM, GREEN MEDICINE (IN CUBA) with NO results. I'm very glad to tell you that NOVITIL GEL is helping me a lot. In only two months of use I am repigmenting forehead, nose, ears, lips, chin, eyebrows, chest, elbows, shin, other parts, etc. I have not seen results yet in my hands and feet, but I continue to use it every day, as your instructions, and I hope to get pigment soonest. I use the sun during the day and infrared lights at night (250w bulbs) at a distance of 20 inches from the spots. I authorize you to post my testimonial at any place, person or institution that you consider important. Doing so I cooperate with other vitiligo sufferers who do not know that wonderful product."
