LATISSE® — the first and only FDA approved prescription treatment for inadequate or not enough eyelashes; growing them longer, fuller and darker. LATISSE® works from the inside out. As the treatment progresses, you'll begin to see changes in length, thickness and darkness gradually. After week 16, you'll see the full effect of LATISSE® — and so will others.
COMMONLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q: What exactly does Latisse do?
A: It treats hypotrichosis (another name for inadequate eyelashes) by enhancing eyelash
prominence as measured by increases in the length, thickness, and darkness of the eyelashes,
and is approved by the FDA.
Q: How long can I use Latisse?
A: According to Allergan, the makers of Latisse, (see their newly launched website for more information, www.latisse.com) each prescription lasts 30 days, and there is no recommended
stop time. The “peak effect” comes at roughly four months of use. Speak to your prescribing
doctor about the length of treatment that’s right for you.
Q: Will my lashes stay longer forever?
A: After you stop using Latisse they will slowly go back to normal with your next eyelash
growth cycle (this varies from person to person but is between a few weeks to a couple months).
Q: How long before I start to see results?
A: Eight weeks, with peak results around four months.
Q: Can I use Latisse if I’ve had Lasik or wear contacts?
A: These are questions for your doctor. You should not use Latisse if you have an active eye
condition, including an eye infection, or have broken or irritated skin on your eyelid. And if you
are using products for elevated intraocular pressure, be sure to discuss this with your doctor.
Contact lenses should be removed prior to use of Latisee and may be reinserted 15 minutes
following its application.
