Latisse
LATISSE™
is the first and only prescription
treatment approved by the FDA for the
cosmetic growth of eyelashes. In the
clinical study presented to the FDA, 78%
of participants reported a significant
increase in ALL of the following three
measurements by week 16: length,
fullness, and darkness.
This once-daily prescription treatment
makes your own natural lashes longer,
thicker and darker over time.
LATISSE™ on average makes lashes 25%
longer, 106% thicker and 18% darker
after 16 weeks of use. Like every beauty
routine, applying LATISSE™ is all about
consistency and precision. As the
treatment progresses, you’ll begin to
see changes gradually. After applying
LATISSE™ each night for 16 weeks, full
results will be visible.

will slowly go back to normal with your

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.
