Abstract
Hypopigmented or depigmented lesions are significant dermatological conditions that frequently occur in regular clinical practice. Accurate diagnosis is of greatest significance. Dermoscopy has been shown to be a valuable technique for the screening, diagnosis, follow-up, and treatment of several common dermatological issues, skin cancers, and pigmentary melanocytic lesions. Dermoscopy enhances the visibility of underlying skin structures by increasing the skin's translucency. Primarily used in the assessment of pigmented lesions, it has shown a higher level of effectiveness compared to clinical inspection. While dermoscopy has not been widely used in those with light complexion, its significance is also growing in populations with dark skin.
