Latisse for Eyelash Growth
As we age, our lash growth cycle naturally slows down, leading to thinner and shorter lashes.
Latisse harnesses the power of its key ingredient, bimatoprost, to extend the growth phase of your lashes and promote the emergence of new, fuller lashes. By applying Latisse to the base of your upper eyelashes daily, you can witness the transformation as your lashes become thicker, darker, and more voluminous over time.
The Benefits of Latisse
- Fuller, longer lashes in just a few weeks
- Look your best without mascara
- Helps restore eyelash length and fullness lost due to aging
- Helps grow eyelashes even if you have genetically thin, sparse lashes
Latisse Easily Integrates into Your Routine
The application process is quick and straightforward, taking just a few minutes each day. Simply apply the solution to the base of your upper lashes using the soft, disposable brushes included with Latisse, and let it work its magic while you go about your day or get night rest.
The Study
There’s real, proven science behind the Latisse claims. Here are the results of the study.
LATISSE® was studied in a multicenter, randomized, double-masked, vehicle-controlled, parallel-group study. In the study, 137 patients applied LATISSE® nightly for 16 weeks. 91% of women in the study were aged 35 or older.
- 78% of the people using LATISSE® (107 out of 137) saw a significant increase in overall eyelash prominence (including elements of fullness, length, and darkness), compared to 18% (26 out of 141) for those who did not use LATISSE®
- 106% fuller (136 LATISSE® patients) vs 12% for the placebo group (140 patients)
- 25% longer (137 LATISSE® patients) vs 2% for the placebo group (141 patients)
- 18% darker (135 LATISSE® patients) vs 3% for the placebo group (138 patients)
Before and after: Actual LATISSE® patient without mascara—lashes not retouched. Individual results may vary. Upon discontinuation of treatment, eyelash growth is expected to return to its pretreatment level.
