Depigmentation is the lightening of the skin or loss of pigment. Depigmentation of the skin can be caused by a number of local and systemic conditions. The pigment loss can be partial (e.g. injury to the skin) or complete (as in vitiligo). It can be temporary (e.g. from tinea versicolor) or permanent (e.g. from albinism).
