Clarelux 500.

Good morning to you all. I saw my dermatologist this week & I mentioned that my hair is falling out quite badly, especially around the hair line. I'm beginning to have prominent bald spots. I think caused by recent stress. She gave me Clarelux 500 cutaneous foam to use & I'm wondering if anyone else has used this with positive results?

Thank you Fabienne, I'll read the leaflet's. I'm abit dubious about using this treatment because it's steroid based & I'm having a steroid injection wk after next. I've made an appointment with my gp to discuss my fears. Some of the side effects sound very scary. If I'm reassured by my gp & start the treatment I'll update you on any result's.
