White spots on children's faces have a great impact on people's lives, and if this continues for a long time it will directly affect the beauty of the child's face. When it comes to white spots on the face, many factors need to be considered, such as vitiligo, so you should go to the hospital for examination and treatment as soon as possible to confirm the cause.

1. The patient has a partial diet and malnutrition

Long-term malnutrition is the direct cause of vitiligo in children. Children nowadays tend to be partial and picky eaters. Sometimes parents spoil their children and don’t pay much attention to them, resulting in long-term unbalanced nutrition and serious lack of certain trace elements.

2. Genetic factors

According to investigations, vitiligo is hereditary. If a child suffers from vitiligo, his chromosomes will be abnormal. These abnormal chromosomes can be inherited directly to the next generation or to the next generation. However, the onset of hereditary vitiligo in children is often caused by stimulation from external factors. Hereditary childhood vitiligo has an obvious characteristic, that is, someone in the family has suffered from vitiligo. Maybe it’s the father, maybe it’s the grandfather, etc.

3. Environmental factors

Environmental factors are also the main factors that induce vitiligo, including industrial and agricultural pollution. Industrial and agricultural pollution is mainly chemical pollution and toxic metal substances. Excessive exposure of children to these substances will lead to endocrine disorders and immune dysfunction, which will lead to vitiligo.

4. Children have low immunity

Low immunity in children is also a common factor leading to vitiligo. Some children are born with poor immunity due to certain reasons, which leads to the obstruction of melanin synthesis in the body and causes vitiligo.
