Latisse in Cleveland, OH

Latisse is a prescription treatment specifically designed to increase the length, thickness, and darkness of your eyelashes. It contains a particular ingredient called bimatoprost, which works by prolonging the growth phase (anagen phase) of the eyelash hair cycle. This allows your lashes to grow longer than they would naturally and increases the number of hairs that sprout during this phase.

It usually takes eight weeks for Latisse to produce noticeable results. During this period, your lashes will gradually become longer, thicker, and darker. The most dramatic results are usually visible after sixteen weeks, when your eyelashes have fully responded to the treatment.

Latisse is considered safe for use when applied as directed by your healthcare provider. However, like any medication, it is important to use Latisse responsibly. You should apply it only to the upper lash line, avoiding contact with other areas of the skin to prevent unwanted hair growth.

Latisse is specifically approved for use on the upper eyelid’s lash line and should not be applied to the lower lashes. Applying Latisse to the lower lashes or other areas of the body is not recommended, as it may cause unwanted hair growth in those areas or increase the risk of side effects.

Over time, your eyelashes will gradually return to their original state if you discontinue using Latisse. The effects of Latisse are not permanent, and discontinuing the treatment will cause the lashes to lose the additional length, thickness, and darkness achieved during use.

Latisse may not be suitable for everyone, especially those with certain pre-existing eye conditions, such as glaucoma or active eye infections. Individuals with allergies to any of the ingredients in Latisse should also avoid using the product. Additionally, if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding, it is important to consult with your healthcare provider before starting Latisse to ensure it is safe for you and your baby.
