Guess whose coming back to visit?

My eyebrows! Hopefully this will be along visit. I received steroid injections (only 1 time), and my Dr. put me on Clobetasol foam and Targretin gel ( which I have been putting on my brow area) and I just noticed little hairs yesterday! I have gotten injections before, and they never worked this fast. I think its the foam...because it stings when I put it on. Next up is eyelashes! If you are in NY, I strongly recomend Garden City Dermatology ( Mike recomended to me).

oh yeah burns like hell...but when it started to burn...was when they came back. Not sure how long this will last...and Im not sure it was the shots or the foam that did it. Havent tried pulse therapy yet. Gonna just keep on doing the shots and using the foam and get. Yes, my insurance covered the gel. However...I have aetna now...so Im not sure if they will. Also...I only use this on my brows...not even bothering trying to head hair back. I think I wil ltry for lashes if I can find a Dr who will do it. I moved so I wont be seeing Daly anymore.

Jennifer, I already have mine tattood. Thanks tho!

So sorry to hear about your eyebrows! I use the ones I found on this web site. They are incredible! Easy to put on and they last for days and they're cheap! I wear them in the shower. Take a look, http://www.tattoobrows.com

Good luck to you!
