Dr. Ziering mentioned in REAL SIMPLE | Can You Use Minoxidil to Grow Out Your Eyebrows?

There’s certainly no shortage of talk about or solutions offered for hair loss on your head. But, what if you’re dealing with hair loss elsewhere, i.e. your brows? “Just like scalp hair loss, hair loss in the eyebrows can be caused by a variety of factors. It can be temporary or permanent, with underlying causes that range from medical conditions to lifestyle factors,” explains Isfahan Chambers-Harris, a certified trichologist and founder of Alodia Haircare. This includes, but isn’t limited to, things such as: alopecia areata, hormonal imbalances, over-plucking, nutritional deficiencies, underlying health conditions, and aging, she adds. When it comes to hair loss solutions, there’s arguably nothing more lauded than minoxidil, the only FDA-approved treatment that’s proven to *actually* cause new hair growth. So, if it works for the hair on your head, will it work equally as well for your arches? Here’s what you need to know.
