What is Mini Punch Grafting?
Mini Punch Grafting is a minor surgical procedure used to treat stable vitiligo. Tiny circular grafts of normally pigmented skin are taken from a donor area and placed into depigmented patches. Over time, pigment spreads from the grafts into the surrounding skin, helping restore a more even skin tone.
What Can Mini Punch Grafting Treat?
- Stable Vitiligo
- Localised Vitiligo
- Treatment-Resistant Vitiligo
- Small Depigmented Patches
- Segmental Vitiligo
- Focal Vitiligo
- Cosmetic Repigmentation

How Does Mini Punch Grafting Work?
Vitiligo Assessment
Your dermatologist confirms that the vitiligo is stable and suitable for surgery.
Graft Harvesting
Tiny grafts of healthy pigmented skin are taken from a concealed donor site.
Graft Placement
The grafts are carefully placed into the depigmented area to encourage gradual repigmentation.
Who is an Ideal Candidate?
Mini Punch Grafting may be suitable if you have:
- Stable Vitiligo
- Localised White Patches
- Segmental Vitiligo
- Treatment-Resistant Vitiligo
- No New Lesions for an Extended Period
- Healthy Skin
- Realistic Treatment Expectations
- Suitable Donor Skin
What to Expect After Treatment?
The treated area is dressed after the procedure, and mild redness, swelling, or crusting is expected during healing. Pigment gradually begins to spread from the grafts over the following weeks to months. Multiple sessions or additional treatments may be recommended depending on the size and location of the vitiligo patches.
Post-Treatment Care
For the best results:
- Keep the dressing intact as advised
- Avoid friction over the treated area
- Take prescribed medications if required
- Attend scheduled follow-up appointments
- Follow any additional phototherapy or medical treatment plan recommended by your dermatologist
