Latisse To Grow Eyelashes – Guide To Usage
Latisse is a preparation of bimatoprost 0.03% ophthalmic solution in a 3ml bottle designed for usage on the eyelids to grow longer eyelashes. Latisse has been shown in scientific studies to grow longer lashes and increase the numbers of lashes by virtue of its effect on the eyelash follicles. Regular usage of Latisse causes the lashes to grow longer, thicker and darker.
Latisse is designed to be applied using a special sterile applicator. One drop of Latisse is placed on the applicator The drop is to be applied to the upper eyelid margin at the base of the lashes. Any excess is to be blotted off. One drop is used per night per upper eyelid. It is not recommended to use Latisse in the lower eyelid. Instillation of Latisse drops into the eyes will cause pigmentary changes in the iris. Contact lenses should be removed before application of Latisse as the bimatoprost solution contains benzalkonium chloride as a preservative which will be absorbed by the soft contact lenses.
It is noted that growth of new eyelashes will start as early as 8 weeks from onset of treatment. However, the new eyelashes will drop off after several weeks to months once Latisse is discontinued.The potential for hair growth in other areas on repeated contact with Latisse solution is possible. It is thus important that there be no prolonged contact with the solution by the prompt wiping off of any excess.
