Jon Hamm’s vitiligo

When Jon Hamm started shooting for the show ‘Mad Men’, he started suffering from a skin condition called Vitiligo.

Talking about it, Jon Hamm had once said to Rolling Stone:

“I have vitiligo. It’s stress-oriented. It comes and goes and waxes and wanes. This did not exist before the show.”

The disease has affected Jon Hamm on his hands only. He admitted that filming for the show has been really stressful for him and this has given him a nasty form of Vitiligo.

His skin on the hands has been discolored and become pale in patches. He attributes it to the long hours he had to spend fretting about his character of Don Draper on the show.

He added:

“You do have to be mentally acute for a significant period of time, and that becomes pretty draining,”

What is vitiligo?

Normally the pigmentation of the skin is more or less uniform throughout the body. But when for some unknown reason this pigmentation is lost at places in patches, it is called Vitiligo.

These areas of depigmentation have clear-cut well-defined margins. The cause of the disease is not known. It is thought to have a genetic link. It also has an autoimmune element to it. Certain environmental insults may also cause it.

These include petroleum products, certain chemicals, and the like. The melanin is lost in the place affected by the disease.

The stigma associated with the condition leads to depression and stress in the patient. Besides, it has also been said that vitiligo is also stress-induced. This was supposedly the case in Jon Hamm.

However, there is no cure for the disease. Sunscreens and coverup makeup aids are recommended. Steroid creams and phototherapy have been said to offer some help. Psychological support and counseling are recommended for those affected.
