What is Latisse?
Latisse is the first and only prescription eyelash growth product in Canada.It is proven to grow your natural eyelashes longer, fuller
and darker. For centuries women have gone to great lengths for beautiful, sexy and alluring eyelashes.Latisse can help you achieve this
with a 25% increase in eyelash length and a 106% increase in eyelash thickness/fullness.
Latisse is one of the most sought after aesthetic treatments today. Almost 90% of Latisse users are so satisfied with the product that
they recommend it to their friends and family, and many continue to use it long-term.
How is Latisse used?
Latisse is a growth product applied once-daily to the base of the upper eyelid margin. Lashes grow gradually over time, with most
people beginning to see longer lashes in as little as 3-8 weeks,with full growth at 16 weeks. It is applied at home,before bed with a sterile,
single-use-per-eye applicator brush.
How long does it take to show results?
It can take up to 8 weeks to begin seeing results, and 16 weeks for full growth.
To keep your lashes looking full and flirty, continued treatment with Latisse is necessary.
How does Latisse work?
Latisse works by stimulating natural eyelash growth using a formula originally developed for LUMIGAN, a glaucoma medication that has
been approved in Canada since 2002. The products ability to grow longer, darker, thicker lashes was initially discovered through patient
reports during clinical trials with glaucoma patients who were using LUMIGAN. The safety of LUMIGAN has been well-established,and
has more than 13 years of clinical trial experience.
What kind of side-effects are there?
Possible adverse effects of Latisse usage include itchy eyes, eye redness, skin hyper-pigmentation, and redness of the eyelid.
These effects occurred in lessthan 4% of the patients. In some LUMIGAN trials for glaucoma treatment, 1.5% of patients receiving
once-daily dosing experienced brown iris pigmentation which could become permanent. This effect was not seen in clinical studies of
Latisse since Latisse delivers only 5% of that dosage using the applicator brush.
Do you need a prescription to use Latisse?, what is the cost?
Latisse can only be obtained through a Doctor. Latisse is not covered by drug plans. Product is available at our clinic and costs $149.99.
Many clients report 1 bottle lasting 6-10 weeks. Growing your own lashes at home is much cheaper than false eyelashes, the cost is
significantly less than false eyelashes, and you don't have to sit in a chair for over an hour every 4-6 weeks. In addition, you don't need
to avoid hot baths, sauna's, or "baby" your lashes...... they are your own hair, unlike false lashes that have so many restrictions.
Can you use Latisse with contact lenses?
Some Latisse ingredients may be absorbed by soft contact lenses. Contact lenses should be removed prior to applying Latisse,
and may be reinserted 15 minutes later.
