We'll my eyebrows have been shedding a lot for months now so I decided it's time to go see a dermatologist . I was just wondering what treatments he will give me to help me regrow my eyebrows ??
Answer: What kind of treatments can a Dermatologist do to help me regrow my eyebrows? Thank you for your question. Latisse is FDA approved for eyelashes. Typically the lashes appear longer in a month, thicker the next month, and darker after that. Use in other places is considered "off-label." There is now literature that supports eyebrow regrowth. We have also seen that clinically in our practice. Sometimes Minoxidil can help. For cases with severe over plucking, a hair transplant may be an effective option.Jeffrey J.
