Latisse
How does LATISSE solution work?
Latisse is thought to enhance the growth cycle, or anagen phase, of your eyelash hair cycle. The anagen phase is the growth phase for all hair. This means that Latisse can increase the length of the anagen phase and the number of hairs in this growth phase.
What are the potential side effects?
The most common side effects of using LATISSE solution are eye itching and redness.
How soon will I see the results?
LATISSE promotes gradual lash growth with full results in 16 weeks. Lengthier lashes may appear after a month, but results may vary.
Can LATISSE change my eye color?
LATISSE usage may result in a permanent increase in the iris’s brown pigmentation, although this is very rare.
How is LATISSE solution different from other lash products that don’t require a prescription?
LATISSE is the first FDA-approved product for inadequate or insufficient lashes. It has been clinically tested for its safety and effectiveness in growing longer, fuller, and darker lashes.
Can LATISSE solution darken my eyelids?
Although it is a frequent concern, eyelid skin darkening is actually an infrequent side effect. According to a study conducted for FDA approval, approximately 2.9% of patients using LATISSE experienced localized skin darkening. This occurs due to an increase in melanin near the area where the solution is applied and is expected to reverse within several weeks to months after discontinuing the product.
What is hypotrichosis?
Eyelash hypotrichosis refers to inadequate lashes in terms of length, thickness, or number.
What happens if I stop using LATISSE solution?
Discontinuing the use of LATISSE will result in a gradual return of your lashes to their original appearance over several weeks to months.
Can LATISSE harm my eyes?
LATISSE is a type of ophthalmic solution that is designed to promote the growth of eyelashes. If any solution accidentally makes contact with your eyes, there is no need to worry as it is not expected to cause any harm. Please avoid applying LATISSE directly into your eyes or onto your lower eyelid. It is also important to note that LATISSE is not an eye drop and should not be used as such.
What if I forget to apply one night? Or a few nights?
If you miss a dose of LATISSE, skip it and apply the next evening as scheduled.
Is LATISSE a replacement for mascara?
LATISSE is not a replacement for mascara, but rather a prescription treatment to enhance lash growth for those with inadequate or insufficient lashes.
Is there anyone who should not use LATISSE?
LATISSE is not suitable for those allergic to bimatoprost or any of its ingredients. If you have glaucoma, you should inform your ophthalmologist that you are using LATISSE.
Can I use LATISSE solution if I wear contacts?
Remove contact lenses before applying LATISSE. Wait 15 minutes after applying LATISSE before putting them back in.
