losing eyelashes!!!

Guest · Guest

I am experiencing the same thing... I am losing eyelashes on my left eye. Starting from the inside towards the middle! A little is starting on my right eye now. I remove my makeup every night and have been using the same mascara for a long time. I too have real long and thick eyelashes but now its like I am balding! I am 22 years old... help...

none of you are alone i have the same problem..my bottom lashes have thinned over the span of the past few weeks and both eyes have huge bald chunks in the middle of the lashes, this has happened once months ago to only one eye and they grew back but scarce..now they just dont seem to be growing back Sad

have any of you considered eye lash transplants or heard any dangers?

Help! I have been losing eyelashes for the last 10 years. My eyelashes get sore to touch and when i pull or pluck them out the eyelash normally has a black root on it. I have been to a dermatoligist and nothing wrong. Fortunately I wear glasses to cover my sparse eyelashes, although I would like to wear contacts again. It takes about a month to grow the lashes back, but they always seem to fall out again.

I am a 38 year old woman. I never had luxurious lashes but, at least I had lashes. That is until a few months ago. I noticed a little bald spot on the middle of my left eye. About a month later they started to grow back and I felt relieved. Now, I have a big clump missing from the middle of my right eye and more are falling out on my left eyelid again. I have no symptoms of trouble with my eyes other than the loss of lashes. I saw a dermatologist who told me very casually that it was just stress and not to worry about it. He didn't even look at my eyelids before giving me the brush off. This is really starting to stress me out! What the heck is causing this?

Hi, ladies it happens to me every spring time during allergy season. My doctor said the eyelid gets swollen and eyelashes fall out. I now use eye drops for allergies and try not to use mascara or an eyelash curler when it's happening and they grow back much faster. I hope this helps.

Blepharitis, had it since age 11. Seems to be related to allergies. Worse yet, I'm allergic to most eye drops. The washcloth routine is worthless to me because they harbor so much junk I'm also allergic to, especially dust mites. Bleaching the washcloths doesn't even help. Doctors, everyone from allergists to opthalmologists and dermatologists, are really clueless and/or just don't care. Was wondering about eyelash implants, since the hair folicles would be different and stronger. Not that I have $6000 to spend to try.

I noticed that my right eyelid was sparse in lash volume about a month ago, now theres a big clump missing. I could see the hair follicle before, and now nothing. I did a search to find more info, and now am shocked to see that I 'm not alone> Especially weird that its commonly the right eye that is affected. I went to my dermotologist and he said it was not something he was familiar with,even in reference to alopecia. I am a make-up artist by trade and frequently curl my eyelashes as well as daily mascara use. I got a little paranoid about the lashes I lost,so I switched mascara brands quite often. Still no progress. I'm wondering if it would be worth it to invest in revitalash or jan marini? anyone tried that stuff? any improvements?

i have been losing my eyelashes for like 8yrs now, and i really got used to this. its sad, as i have tried a lot of things to make it stop, but nothing has helped me...my eyelashes still grow back, but they are shorter and sparse. i use only eyeshadows, and mascara only once in a blue moon. i thought it would help my eyelashes to regenerate, but nth of the sort...im helpless
