Model Temi stuns in new photos as she marks Work Vitiligo Day
There
is a lot of stigmatization that surrounds Vitiligo (pronounced
Vi-Ti-Lai-Go). The skin condition is caused by de-pigmentation of some
parts of the skin and usually occurs when skin pigment cells die or are
unable to function.
This
skin condition is rare with worldwide incidences averaging 1% with most
people who're affected being diagnosed before the age of 40.
Temilola Omobajesu, a model affected with vitiligo, states that the
confidence within you is the key to overcome the 'stigma'.
