Vitix Regulating Gel is a non-greasy gel designed to regulate vitiligo-affected areas on the face and body of people with vitiligo. It features a completely innovative mechanism of action thanks to a patented plant extract rich in catalase + SOD, which helps restore the physiological balance of free radicals in the skin, protecting cells from oxidative stress, which is known to be the cause of vitiligo.
Its well-tolerated formula, which causes no side effects, contains microscopic, touch-insensitive granules that envelop and protect the plant complex. Upon application, the temperature and pressure of the fingertip break the microscopic granules, releasing the active ingredient.
Vitex Pigment Regulating Gel is applied once or twice daily to the affected and surrounding areas of pigment loss, over a period of 4 to 6 months. It can be used in conjunction with UV phototherapy to improve skin re-pigmentation results.
Vitex Skin Pigmentation Regulating Gel has a non-greasy texture that penetrates quickly. It leaves a light finish on the skin, allowing you to apply skincare cream or makeup afterward.
The effectiveness of Vitex Gel has been proven through two clinical studies conducted by the ACM Laboratory:
- First on 17 patients after 6 months of twice-daily use, in addition to UVB phototherapy sessions (1)
- Second on 20 patients after 4 months of daily use, in addition to the solar therapy protocol (exposure to natural UV rays) (2)
In both cases, Vitex gel increased the number of people who had repigmentation by a factor of 2, by more than 50% compared to placebo (1)(2). Therefore, these two studies demonstrate that using Vitex gel as a supplement to phototherapy or solar therapy allows for more intense repigmentation compared to treatment alone.
The first study (1) also showed that over 50% of patients responded to treatment with faster repigmentation when using Vitex Gel Regulator.

Patented Plant Extract: This patented watermelon extract is concentrated in catalase and SOD to improve the physiological balance of free radicals and protect cells from the oxidative stress known to cause vitiligo. SOD is the most powerful primary antioxidant known, and its effectiveness is enhanced by the presence of catalase.
