LATISSE\u00ae solution is a growth treatment for lashes. In fact, it\u2019s the only FDA-approved treatment clinically proven to grow lashes. And it\u2019s the only lash growth product of its kind available by prescription. So you\u2019ll need to talk to your doctor to see if it\u2019s right for you.<\/p>\n
LATISSE\u00ae solution is a once-a-day treatment you apply topically to the base of your upper eyelashes, as instructed by your doctor. Then, gradually, the results come in. You may start to see more length in as little as 4 weeks and you should achieve full growth in 16 weeks. It\u2019s not an illusion of growth. It\u2019s your own eyelashes \u2014 only better.<\/p>\n
LATISSE\u00ae makes lash growth possible because of its active ingredient: bimatoprost. Although the precise mechanism of action is unknown, LATISSE\u00ae 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.<\/p>\n

\nIf you are using, or have used, prescription products for any eye pressure problems, only use LATISSE\u00ae under close doctor care. Although not seen in LATISSE\u00ae clinical studies, LATISSE\u00ae solution may cause increased brown pigmentation of the colored part of the eye, which is likely permanent. Eyelid skin darkening may occur, which may be reversible. Only apply at the base of the upper eyelashes. DO NOT APPLY to the lower eyelid. Hair growth may occur in other skin areas that LATISSE\u00ae solution frequently touches. If you develop or experience any eye problems or have eye surgery, consult your doctor immediately about continued use of LATISSE\u00ae. The most common side effects after using LATISSE\u00ae solution are itchy eyes and\/or eye redness. If discontinued, lashes will gradually return to their previous appearance.<\/p>\n
