        Vitiligo is a health condition (in a technical sense). Using white foundation to hide the spots is a choice.

          Rather than live with the white patches slowly developing over years, he chose to go full white all at once.

          My father has vitiligo as well, but he was white to begin with, so it wasn’t as shocking to see it develop over time.
