well steroid creams and various ointments haven't really worked for me. i couldn't get steroid injections because my AA is quite severe. however i'm still hopeful even though my eyebrows are disappearing as well as the eyelashes because i'm booked for PUVA light therapy very soon. worth a try ehh?! :) x

Thank You!! Eek I didn't see the reply..

well I'm going to the hospital later today to have it done for the first time!!!!!
I'm kind of nervous but excited at the same time :D I have to take a pair of sunglasses with me and a hat hahaha. I really REALLY don't suit many glasses so I'll probably look like a dofus lol.

just came back after having it... my first thought is... did it actually do anything?! i had to put the gel on 30mins before and you go under some old skool head unit with the same lights as the ones you get at tanning salons (if you guys have ever been lol). it literally lasted 50seconds and it was a less warming sensation than walking around while its sunny :/ i was like.. is that it?!?!?! ahh well........ i have another appointment on thursday.. hopefully it will be more powerful. x

its going okay i think...... there was a really dodgy nurse who did my 2nd treatment and basically i got pretty badly burnt on some bits of my head and ears =( but now its going alright i suppose.. (so long as i have the other nurse lol) im still not seeing much regrowth yet but i guess it'll take time.
