OUR HISTORY

In 1985 it was necessary to create the first international vitiligo patient care service at the “Cira García” Central Clinic in Havana City under the responsibility of Dr. Miyares himself, such was the influx of patients from countries near Cuba (México , Venezuela, Colombia) that gave rise to the establishment of the first health tourism system through the CUBATUR Company.

In 1986, as a consequence of the international repercussion caused by the new Cuban method of treating Vitiligo as a medicine obtained from the human placenta, the Council of State founded on April 25, the Placental Histotherapy Center under the direction of Dr. Carlos Manuel Miyares Cao with the aim of expanding these investigations.

In 1987 it is necessary to establish the national and international clinical service of the center due to the increase in the number of vitiligo patients requesting care in Cuba with the new drug with patients from more than 90 countries; as well as, to provide coverage to those affected by said disease in Cuba. From 1988 to 1991, centers for the care of these patients began to be established in other countries, thus beginning the export of Melagenina.
The medical staff of these Centers received training at the Placental Histotherapy Center to ensure that the application of the method achieved the same effectiveness as in Cuba.
Thus, the centers of the Canary Islands (Spain), the Republic of San Marino, Madrid, Spain were established; Brazil; Bogota Colombia; México City, México; Lima, Peru; Nicaragua; The Savior; Entre Rios, Argentina; Kyiv, Ukraine; Moscow and Petrograd in Russia; Kyrgyzstan, Kazakhstan; Riga, Latvia; Niger, Africa.
In this stage, 30 associations of Vitiligo patients called Associations of Friends against vitiligo were founded, made up of patients who requested the introduction of the Cuban medicine in their respective countries.
