Just got back from my visit to dermatologist. I have been on clobestaol for 7 1/2 weeks & she said it has worked on stopping the inflammation. She was very happy with the outcome. So as far as I understand. No inflammation of hair follicles no more hair loss. I had not been putting it behind my ear where there is hair so that was still a little inflamed. She says to keep on using it now 3 times week instead of every day & come see her back in 6 months. I came in to see her early on she said. FFA has already been active long before the person notices the hair loss she said. I’m very hopeful now that it’s not going to get worse. She also said to have my husband look close at my hair follicles between now & next appointment to make sure there is no red ring around them. She said that’s what she originally saw.
