Resumen

Objective. To estimate a profile that would allow us to know the quality-of-life impairment in the adult population with vitiligo based on sociodemographic and clinical variables, self-esteem and disease severity. Method. A total of 359 people with an age range between 18 and 75 years (M = 37.81; SD = 10.03) participated. The Vitiligo-Specific Quality of Life Instrument and the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale were applied. Results. 80.8% of the participants reported significant quality of life impairment, 91.9% perceived a significant degree of severity, and 71.9% reported high self-esteem. Quality of life correlated with self-esteem and perceived severity. In the comparative tests there was significance in quality-of-life impairment by marital status, education and type of vitiligo. Conclusions. The profile with greater quality-of-life impairment was in patients without a partner, with less than 12 years of schooling and generalized or universal types of vitiligo. Self-esteem was lower in those without a partner and with less than 12 years of schooling. Perceived severity increased with disease duration (>6 years), active vitiligo, genital area involvement and with generalized or universal types of vitiligo
