Here Are The Tips For Using Latisse From A Dermatologist- Part 2

What Does The Second Part Of The Discussion Say?

There are more facts to be considered when resorting to the use of Latisse. Here we discuss more of those facts and reality about the use of it. You can always grow the lashes long when there is more to consider using Latisse. Hence, we continue the discussion in this part too. Let's start away on the discussion and get insight on the treatment procedure. 

How Do We Achieve My Goal Length And Thickness?

You can start using Latisse every-other-night instead of every night once your lashes are the length and thickness you want. If you stop using Latisse completely remember that your lashes will go back to how they were before treatment. You should keep in mind that the full effect of the treatment is seen in week 16. 

Is Latisse Effective For Eyebrows?

The answer is yes as Latisse is often used to help fill in sparse eyebrows. Be prepared to have to trim more as it may also make the hairs grow longer. A tiny drop will work or just use what’s left on the brush after you do your upper lashes as you don’t need much product. 

How Much Does Latisse Cost?

Selling 1 kit of Latisse for $50-170 are most of the dermatology offices.

There is also a possibility of requesting a prescription and picking it up at the pharmacy. 

Also offering a reward program called Brilliant Distinctions is the company making Latisse Allergan. Every time you buy Latisse you get points that can be used to get discounts on future treatments similar to airlines frequent flyer programs. 

Is Latisse Safe To Use?

Latisse should be safe to use in general as long as you have healthy eyes i.e., no glaucoma or infections. Safe to use is Latisse. Go see your eye doctor get an exam and ask if you are a candidate for Latisse if you are not sure about how healthy your eyes are. 

You need to talk to a doctor PA-C or ARNP who can prescribe it in case Latisse is not for everyone though and it’s a prescription medication. Stop using the product and call your doctor if when you do start Latisse, you develop eye or eyelid irritations or eyelid discolouration. 

Is That True That Latisse Can Change The Colour Of Eyes?

About this subject, there is a lot of misleading information floating around on the internet. Firstly, it is important to know that developed from a prescription eye drop called Lumigan was Latisse that is placed into the eyes to treat glaucoma. There was a 1% incidence of hyperpigmentation of the eye itself especially for patients with hazel or light brown eyes in the original Lumigan FDA clinical trials. Latisse is applied only along the lash line not in the eye, unlike Lumigan. With Latisse, the chance of permanent darkening of your eye colour is very, very, rare. With Latisse, there have been no reported cases of an eye colour change to date.

Refer to the FDA approved prescribing information for Latisse along with a discussion with your doctor. 

Where Can I Get Latisse?

Most of them carry it in their office, whereas the local dermatologist can prescribe Latisse for you. Insurance won’t cover it as you can also request a prescription for your pharmacy. It is not recommended to buy the product on the web. They are counterfeit as many products look exactly like it. 

Are There Any Other Products As Effective As Latisse But Cheaper?

To compete with Latisse, many companies are coming out with lash products. None are FDA- approved and none have been proven to provide the same results as Latisse, although some of these Latisse competitors may be somewhat effective in lengthening lashes. 

The Conclusion

Just as we know that Latisse helps with the growth of eyelashes, be careful of all the products available in the market as well as prescription drugs. The over-the-counter drugs may still be counterfeit and so you need to know which is one is best and which one should be avoided.

Most of the patients report effective growth in the coming weeks as the continuous application is needed. As also many of them discontinue after a while. Here it is probable that it may cause further danger with the discontinued application. It is better to use it every day until the result is obtained and then by reducing the application by a few days but not completely discontinuing.
