If you have tried just about every type of beauty product to make your eyelashes stand out, and have been unsuccessful (extension mascara or false eyelashes), then LATISSE ™ may be the solution for you.
For those who have hypotrichosis – inadequate eyelashes or not enough lashes – you may achieve longer, fuller, and darker eyelashes by choosing LATISSE. This is an FDA-approved, prescription-only treatment, which can effectively increase and enhance eyelash growth. LATISSE is the latest product in prescription eye care treatments; it was created by Allergen, a pharmaceutical leader for over 60 years.
LATISSE is at an at-home treatment. With daily application, it will gradually provide more length and improve the overall appearance of the eyelashes.
Patients will be instructed to apply the LATISSE solution to their lashes once a day for a period of 16 weeks. Typically, most patients will notice a significant difference in the look of their eyelashes within four weeks of starting treatment, while complete results are apparent for 16 weeks (the full duration of treatment) after consistent, daily use.
LATISSE is an effective solution, due to its active ingredient, bimatoprost, which helps lashes grow faster by increasing the percentage of hairs growing in and intensity of the growth phase (or anagen).
Some of the common side effects of LATISSE include darkening of the eyelid skin (which may be reversible), itching sensation, eye irritation, dryness of the eyes, and redness of the eyelids. Only a small percentage of LATISSE patients will experience these side effects, which are often only temporary.
