LATISSE®
LATISSE® is an eyelash enhancement drug manufactured by Allergan, the maker of BOTOX® and JUVÉDERM®. With LATISSE®, you can see longer, fuller and darker eyelashes in a matter of weeks by just brushing the product on your upper eyelids daily to keep lashes in a perpetual growth phase.
Who Can Use LATISSE®?
LATISSE® is FDA approved for people who experience a condition called hypotrichosis, or inadequate eyelashes. If you are dissatisfied with your eyelashes, you may be a candidate for LATISSE®.
How to Apply LATISSE®
First, remove makeup and contact lenses and make sure your skin is clean. Next, hold the sterile applicator horizontally and place a single drop of LATISSE® on the area of the applicator closest to the tip (but not on the tip). Brush the applicator carefully along the skin at the base of the upper eyelashes, where the skin meets the lashes. Do not apply on the lower eyelid. Blot any excess with a tissue and dispose of the applicator.

After Using LATISSE®: What to Expect
LATISSE® does not work instantly. It takes at least 12 weeks for the full results to be appreciated. After about 8 weeks you should see a change in your eyelashes. In clinical studies of LATISSE®, 78 percent of participants realized a significant increase in their eyelashes at week 16.
