Medical Conditions - White Lesion On Face

White lesion on the face is a type of depigmented skin lesion caused due to infection, allergy, or autoimmune disorder. Rarely, skin cancer and precancerous changes cause white patches on the skin. The other causes are vitiligo, eczema, and tinea versicolor. Applying topical creams, ultraviolet light therapy, and oral medications helps restore skin color and stop the spread of white patches. Skin grafts are also effective.
