Latisse Consultation & Treatment for Longer Eyelashes

Our Latisse consultation and treatment for eyelashes can help if you struggle with thin lashes.

Thin eyelashes don’t just leave your eyes looking bald and bare. They also leave your eyes unprotected from debris, infection and other invaders. Although eyelash balding is related to changing hormones, there are effective treatments for eyelashes that support lengthening and thickening.

Latisse eyelid drops are an FDA-approved treatment that you use to help improve inadequate eyelashes. During your Latisse consultation, our eye care team will determine whether this bimatoprost-based solution (0.03%) is a good fit for your eyes and overall health.

Details About Latisse Drops

Latisse is the brand name of daily application you apply to the skin of the upper eyelid using sterile applicators. Over time, this treatment stimulates hair growth at the lash line.

Over time, you’ll notice greater eyelash growth. You’ll also experience thicker and longer lashes. Normal eyelashes grow for a set time and then shed. However, the active ingredient, bimatoprost, increases the growth phase length and the number of hairs growing.

During our Latisse consultation and treatment for eyelashes includes step-by-step guidelines specific to you.

Prescriptions for Lengthening Lashes

Most people think of dermatologists when they’re interested in a Latisse prescription. Nonetheless, it’s important to consult an eye care professional before beginning the first phase of your six- to eight-week Latisse treatment program.

Bimatoprost, Latisse’s active ingredient, lowers intraocular pressure while it regulates the dilation and constriction of blood vessels in the eyelids. If a patient has preexisting eye conditions like uveitis and conjunctivitis, they aren’t a good candidate for an eyelash-lengthening prescription.

Additionally, patients at high risk for macular edema, those with severe allergies, or chronic infections on the upper eyelids are advised against using this treatment.

Latisse Treatment Isn’t for Everyone

A percentage of patients experienced side effects, such as increased pigmentation on their eyelids. That’s one reason to ensure you schedule a Latisse consultation with us to determine whether the treatment’s appropriate for you.

Why Lengthening Your Lashes Is Important

Eyelashes aren’t only a symbol of beauty — they help protect your eyes from small particles. Tiny specks of debris like sand, dirt and dust can obstruct your vision, lead to infection and/or cause eye injury.
