I used it for about two months and saw nothing happen, it was expensive so I stopped using it, I guess everyone is different, but honestly I don't think its helps with alopecia :[

I have for only about a week at a time but it burned my eyeballs and people thought I was crying or stoned. Lol. I can't get far enough to see if it would work.

Hi Catherine,<br />
I realize you posted this a long time ago but thought i would reply anyway. Unfortunately Latisse will not work for someone who has lost their eyebrows due to alopecia. It will make lashes that are already there thicker and fuller but it will not regrow missing ones. As you know, alopecia occurs because your immune system attacks your hair follicles. Latisse has no effect on this. If it made hair grow, we could probably use it on our heads too. Wouldn't that be great!!!!?? :)

Hi all,<br />
I have had AU since I was about 13 ( I am now 25), I have had some "remissions" ( however not on my scalp), axillary hair, pubic hair, and *sparse* lashes that come and go. I started to use Lumigan on my lashes and it actually worked. I've been using it for 2 years almost and I have rather full, dark lashes *touch wood*. I have noticed that my bottom lashes on my left eye have started to fall out again. I do lose patches of eyelashes, probably more than the average person would, but I…
Hi all,<br />
I have had AU since I was about 13 ( I am now 25), I have had some "remissions" ( however not on my scalp), axillary hair, pubic hair, and *sparse* lashes that come and go. I started to use Lumigan on my lashes and it actually worked. I've been using it for 2 years almost and I have rather full, dark lashes *touch wood*. I have noticed that my bottom lashes on my left eye have started to fall out again. I do lose patches of eyelashes, probably more than the average person would, but I keep using Lumigan and they eventually grow back. I had read a study on Lumigan and alopecia and I believe it said that those with over 50% loss of eyelashes would not likely experience regrowth. Where I fall in, I am not sure. I had 100% loss, then had remission in my lashes (for about 6 years), but it was sparse and I always wore false lashes. Now I have lashes. I have been trying it on my eyebrows as well and my left eyebrow has experienced some sporadic growth. Not the right though. Weird, maybe it's all a fluke. It's worth a shot though, and if you have health insurance I think you can have some of the cost of lumigan covered. Sorry if this reply was all over the place!

I tried this a few months back, my father is a doctor and looked into it before I started use. The cost on latisse is really high so he got me the sister product lumigan, which is the same exact thing just way cheaper. The only difference is latisse comes with the little applicator brushes... when I used this on my eyelash it made my eyes itch so I discontinued use.

Latisse did not work for my daughter. It extends the growth cycle which is why they grow longer. It is probably a waste of money and is quite expensive.

My Derm. told me that it was originally used to treat Glaucoma...that is what it was developed for and yes it could change her eye colour. So u apply it on the lids not in the eyes?? it was discovered that anyone that was using it for glaucoma, their eyelashes started growing longer, so they of course saw dollar signs and marketed for eyelash growth as well.

I have had alopecia for almost 2 years now...I have a great support system from my Family and Friends..although I have good days and bad I have no hair...used to have beautiful curly hair, so it is really hard for me at times cause it was my signature. keep thinking positive...with your daughter being so young, if it develops further you would be surprised at how strong the kids can be...and as long as others know what it is all about, she will only become stronger. Don't know what is better...losing ur hair at a young age or later in life...Congrats on her accomplishments...see she is strong...and you will be although I know how hard it can be on you, I saw what my parents went through. Take care and thanks for the info!! Cathy :)
