After careful consideration of the choices available, we have decided to offer Latisse™ to our clients.
Latisse™ is the first and only prescription treatment approved by the FDA for inadequate or insufficient eyelashes, growing them longer, fuller and darker. This product is applied to the eyelid along the lash line which will, over about 12 to 16 weeks, result in thicker, fuller, darker, eyelashes.



Unretouched clinical photos of actual LATISSE™ users. In the clinical trial, 78% of LATISSE™ users experienced >1-grade increase vs 18% for vehicle, and 33% experienced >2-grade increase vs 1% for vehicle, on the 4-point Global Eyelash Assessment (GEA) scale* at week 16.¹ Individual results may vary.

|
Are there any special warnings associated with LATISSE™ use?
|
LATISSE™ solution is intended for use on the skin of the upper eyelid margins at the base of the eyelashes.
DO NOT APPLY to the lower eyelid. If you are using LUMIGAN™ or other products in the same class for elevated intraocular pressure (IOP), or if you have a history of abnormal IOP, you should only use LATISSE™ under the close supervision of your physician.
LATISSE™ use may cause darkening of the eyelid skin which may be reversible. LATISSE™ use may also cause increased brown pigmentation of the colored part of the eye which is likely to be permanent.
It is possible for hair growth to occur in other areas of your skin that LATISSE™ frequently touches. Any excess solution outside the upper eyelid margin should be blotted with a tissue or other absorbent material to reduce the chance of this from happening. It is also possible
for a difference in eyelash length, thickness, fullness, pigmentation, number of eyelash hairs, and/or direction of eyelash growth to occur between eyes. These differences, should they occur, will usually go away if you stop using LATISSE™.
|
Who should I tell that I am using LATISSE™?
|
You should tell your physician you are using LATISSE™ especially if you have a history of eye pressure problems. You should also tell anyone conducting an eye pressure screening that
you are using LATISSE™.
|
What are the possible side effects of LATISSE™?
|
The most common side effects after using LATISSE™ solution are an itching sensation in the eyes and/or eye redness. This was reported in approximately 4% of patients. LATISSE™ solution may cause other less common side effects which typically occur on the skin close
to where LATISSE™ is applied, or in the eyes. These include skin darkening, eye irritation, dryness of the eyes, and redness of the eyelids.
If you develop a new ocular condition (e.g., trauma or infection), experience a sudden decrease in visual acuity, have ocular surgery, or develop any ocular reactions, particularly conjunctivitis and eyelid reactions, you should immediately seek your physician's advice
concerning the continued use of LATISSE™ solution.
|
What happens if I stop using LATISSE™?
|
If you stop using LATISSE™, your eyelashes are expected to return to their previous appearance over several weeks to months. Any eyelid skin darkening is expected to reverse after several weeks to months. Any darkening of the colored part of the eye known as the iris is NOT expected to reverse and is likely permanent.
|
How do I use LATISSE™?
|
LATISSE™ solution is packaged as a 3 mL bottle of solution with 60 accompanying sterile, disposable applicators. The recommended dosage is one application nightly to the skin of the upper eyelid margin at the base of the eyelashes only.
Once nightly, start by ensuring your face is clean, makeup and contact lenses are removed. Remove an applicator from its tray. Then, holding the sterile applicator horizontally, place one drop of LATISSE™ on the area of the applicator closest to the tip but not on the tip. Then immediately draw the applicator carefully across the skin of the upper eyelid margin at the base of the eyelashes (where the eyelashes meet the skin) going from the inner part of your lash line to the outer part (see pamphlet that accompanies product). Blot any excess solution beyond the eyelid margin. Dispose of the applicator after one use. Repeat for the opposite upper eyelid margin using a new sterile applicator. This helps minimize any potential for contamination from one eyelid to another.
DO NOT APPLY in your eye or to the lower lid. ONLY use the sterile applicators supplied with LATISSE™ to apply the product. If you miss a dose, don't try to "catch up". Just apply LATISSE™ solution the next evening. Fifty percent of patients treated with LATISSE™ in a clinical study saw significant improvement by 2 months after starting treatment. If any LATISSE™ solution gets into the eye proper, it is not expected to cause harm. The eye should not be rinsed.
Don't allow the tip of the bottle or applicator to contact surrounding structures, fingers, or any other unintended surface in order to avoid contamination by common bacteria known to cause infections. Contact lenses should be removed prior to application of LATISSE™ and may be reinserted 15 minutes following its administration. Use of LATISSE™ more than once a day will not increase the growth of eyelashes more than use once a day.
Store LATISSE™ solution at 36 - 77degrees F (20 - 25 degrees C).
