Abstract

Vitiligo is a result of disrupted epidermal melanization with an undecided etiology and incompletely 
understood pathogenesis. Various treatment options have resulted in various degrees of success. 
Various surgical modalities and transplantation techniques have evolved during the last few decades. 
Of them, miniature punch grafting (PG) has established its place as the easiest, fastest, and least 
expensive method. Various aspects of this particular procedure have been discussed here. The 
historical perspective, the instruments, evolution of mini grafting down the ages, and the 
methodology, advantages, and disadvantages have been discussed.
