Hello!I was wondering if anyone has been tested for food allergies to determine if a particular food is causing inflammation, which in turn could exacerbate FFA. I had the skin test a couple of years ago at an allergy clinic, and it came back…Continue

Hello All, I am venturing into new territory. It just dawned on me that a good experiment would be to try a medical grade CBD oil tincture on my hairline and see if it affects the redness. CBD is the nonpsychoactive part of marijuana that is being…Continue

I'm feeling rough. Im not sure if I've caught a bug or if it's the antibiotics or the steriod injections. Anyone else feel rough when they've taken Doxycycline and does it get better?

Lorn - re eyebrows, Celia and I go to the same lady in Chertsey, Surrey. You get touch-ups approx every 18 months. The cost is £410.00 for people with medical conditions. You have a consultation first. Then go back for your first treatment, then a second treatment a month later. She is excellent, it does not hurt (some other practioners go too deep and it is painful) the healing process is really quick because she only works on the upper layers. I had my brows done by another practitioner before and she was not anywhere near as skilled.
Check out the website www.belindahayle.com and you can see photos of clients.
Hi Celia, I have been thinking about eyebrow tattoos for a long time - but am a little nervous about it looking natural - or as natural as can be.
That is encouraging that yours have turned out well. I'm not going to say money isn't a factor - but I am willing to pay the price for a good job - I just have to find one in my area who is very good. How long have you had yours and have you had any touch ups?
Saw my Dermatologist today. She said things looked pretty mild for me today with the FFA and my rosacea. They now have the Excimer laser treatment. I forgot about the article someone posted on this treatment, so I didn't ask her to much about it. They have only had it a month or so I think. Currently it is used on the scalp for inflammatory skin conditions. She wants to try it on my eyebrows since my scalp is not that bad yet. Don't think it has been used on eyebrows yet. Very experimental. It is also very expensive - around $3000 per treatment,not covered by insurance and you have to go twice a week. Needless to say, I can not afford to do that. Plus I'm concerned about the safety of the laser so close to the eyes. You do have to wear goggles. I got steroid injections on my scalp and eyebrows. They are painful on the eyebrows, not to bad on the scalp. I get the indentations on my head, but so far none on the eyebrows. Not sure how long I will continue with the injections. I have been on doxyclycline a month now so to soon to tell if that is helping. I now am to use only the clobetasol foam the night before and night after I dye my hair. I also asked about diet. There is no scientific proof that shows diet helps with inflammatory skin issues. So nothing different recommended there except to try to eat healthy. Sigga - my husband and I were just talking the other day how we want to travel to Iceland. We hear it's a beautiful country. Judy - How do you know your hairloss has stopped? Have you had that happen before and then start up again?
Hi Rebecca the Doxoycycline workd on my swollen forehed but my hair is still fall off.And Yes it is Wonderful in Iceland.Ok and What is the writer name..And now I'm not on any medication...
