TikToker Charles Perallo has a theory that Matt Smith has madarosis
Madarosis is a health condition that can cause eyebrow hair loss
A TikTok user has a theory about what happened to Matt Smith’s eyebrows, and they took to the social media platform to explain their findings. @Charlesperalo posted a video showing how Smith’s eyebrows have all but disappeared over the years, first considering alopecia, a condition that causes those who have it to lose their hair (via AAD). However, people with alopecia tend to lose all their hair, not just their eyebrow hair. So @charlesperalo suggests Smith has madarosisA health condition that can lead to loss of eyelashes and eyebrows (through National Library of Medicine).
@charlesperalo claims that the condition affects 1 in 500 people, although this number is not supported by most reputable medical journals, a signal that perhaps TikTok is not the best source to find medical information. It’s also good to note that Smith still has some eyebrow hair; It is not completely gone. It could simply be genetics, and Matt SmithHis eyebrows simply thin quickly. It doesn’t seem to bother the actor too much and there is a lot more to the actor than the density of hair on his face.
