Some of the most frequently asked questions about Latisse

LATISSE solution is a prescription treatment for hypotrichosis used to grow eyelashes, making them longer, thicker and darker.

Latisse is believed to affect the growth (anagen) phase of the eyelash hair cycle in two ways: first, it increases the length of this phase; and second, it increases the number of hairs in this growth phase. The exact way it works is unknown.

Latisse users may see results starting at 8 weeks with full results at 12 to 16 weeks. The growth is gradual overnight, over time.

No, Latisse does not work in place of mascara. Latisse is a solution treatment for inadequate or not enough lashes and requires a prescription from a doctor. However, mascara can be used on your eyelashes in addition to Latisse.

If you stop using Latisse, your eyelashes are expected to return to their previous appearance over several weeks to months.

The most common side effects after using Latisse solution are an itching sensation in the eyes and/or eye redness. This was reported in approximately 4% of patients. Latisse solution may cause other less common side effects which typically occur on the skin close to where Latisse is applied, or in the eyes. These include skin darkening, eye irritation, dryness of the eyes, and redness of the eyelids.

Guidelines for getting the best results with Latisse

Think routine
Try to incorporate Latisse into your nightly routine — for example, after you’ve washed your face and brushed your teeth.

Keep it handy
Store the Latisse bottle near your other skin care products or toothbrush, so you won’t forget to apply it each night.

Have patience
Latisse (bimatoprost ophthalmic solution) 0.03% takes time to work. Only use it once a night, and don’t overuse it, as this may increase the chance of experiencing eye redness or itchiness.

Start fresh
If your eye makeup remover leaves an oily residue on your eyelids, wipe off any excess oils with soap and water to ensure a clean surface before you apply Latisse.

Follow the rules
Always use the sterile, disposable FDA-approved applicator provided in the kit. Don’t try to apply Latisse with a cotton swab. The Latisse applicator is specially designed to hold a drop and release a drop.

Don’t play catch up
If you miss a dose one night, don’t apply more just to catch up. Simply apply Latisse the next evening and stay on schedule.

Beware of germs
Don’t let the tip of the bottle or applicator contact your fingers or any other unintended surface, in order to avoid contamination.

Chart your progress
When you start using Latisse solution, be sure to mark your calendar and take pictures throughout weeks (0, 4, 8, 12, 16), so you can have your own “Before & After Gallery.”

Real Latisse Patient Testimonials

“While pregnant with my second child at 23, I went through a lot of stress, and as a result, I began to lose my eyelashes … to the point where I literally had none! My eyes looked weird. It was embarrassing. I never realized the value of my eyelashes until they were gone.

To make up for the loss, I started wearing false eyelashes all the time, which wasn’t always convenient. But I kept wearing them … for decades! I’d pretty much given up hope of ever having eyelashes again.

Then, at age 61, I was asked to participate in a clinical study for eyelash growth by my doctor. He didn’t make any promises, but I was hopeful. The results were amazing! Finally, my lashes grew back thick and long! I was so excited. Now I have beautiful long eyelashes.”
-Jeannie

“I’ve always had thin, short lashes. They were barely noticeable. Within the first month, my lashes started to grow and, within two months, they looked even better.

My favorite part is that the product is so easy to use.”
-Hope

“After using the product, my eyelashes really stand out. I get compliments all the time and it feels great! Everyone wants to know my secret … People even ask if I am wearing false eyelashes.

I feel more confident knowing this product, unlike other lash growth products on the market, is FDA-approved, and comes from Allergan, a name I trust. I will absolutely tell all of my friends (and anyone who asks) about this new lash growth product.”
-Lisa

“My eyelashes got so long, the tips of my lashes hit the lenses in my sunglasses!”
-Jolynn
