Thinning Eyelashes? Latisse is the Answer

After a year of wearing masks, your eyes are now the star of the show instead of your smile. However, if you have thinning eyelashes, you might not be so happy with them. We have just the answer to that problem, Latisse!

What Is Latisse and How Does It Work?

Latisse is the first FDA-approved treatment for growing longer and thicker eyelashes. You apply it topically to the base of your upper eyelashes once a day. Most patients will see results beginning at 4 weeks. Full results are generally achieved after 16 weeks of consistent use.

So how does it work? Its active ingredient is bimatoprost that has been shown to increase the number of eyelashes growing during a lengthened growth phase. This extended period of growth allows your lashes to grow longer, thicker, and darker.

Why Is It a Better Option?

There are plenty of products on the market that claim to thicken, lengthen, darken, and increase eyelash growth. However, Latisse is the only product approved by the FDA and can back its claim with science. Bimatoprost is a prostaglandin, a fatty acid that promotes hormone-like effects on the body, including hair growth.

Using non-FDA-approved eyelash thickening/growth products can be dangerous. They can cause injury or damage to your eyes. Other options like lash extensions require a lot of maintenance and can become very expensive and time-consuming. They could also damage your existing lashes. Therefore, Latisse is always a better option.
