Suction blister grafting has been used for repigmentation in patients with vitiligo, but its use in treating hypopigmentation in patients with Hansen’s disease has not been reported. Herein, we report a case of successful repigmentation of a persistent hypopigmented patch of a patient with Hansen’s disease using suction blister grafting.
