This aspect is particularly relevant in young adults, those with severe Vitiligo, and those for whom appearance is very important due to a variety of factors including job, profession, level of self-esteem, etc. Dark skin individual are under particular emotional stress from Vitiligo, due to enhanced visibility of Vitiligo on dark skin.

In regard to gender, the notion that males will be less concerned about impaired appearance than will females is not true, even if society places special emphasis on female appearance. Studies about this particular aspect have proved that this is simply not the case. Men are as concerned about their appearance as women. However, men are less likely to express the emotions regarding  physical appearance. 

A physician's advice or counseling in this matter should be sought when necessary. It is important to be able to take positive action in order to help minimize social embarrassment.
