Ive lost most of my eyelashes especially on my left side. Do they grow back? if so how long does it take?

yes, my eyelashes on one of my eyes got scarce towards the end of my course, but as soon as my course was over they started going back to normal.

No, I never lost eyelashes (or hair). It won't hurt to mention it to your doctor as there can be other reasons for eyelash loss.

I know this was years ago but I am hoping @blondiegirl can respond. Did your eyelashes grow back? I just finished my second month on accutane and in this past month I have gone from a very full lash line to scarce eyelashes and they continue to fall out. Should I continue with treatment? I'm worried that because my lashes are falling out that means my eyebrows and hair will fall out soon too.
