Does anyone know how long Latisse takes to work?

By KateH on 05 Aug 2011

I am waiting for it to get sent to me in the mail.  How long has it taken to work for everyone else? I'm excited to see the results!

4-8 weeks
Thank you all for your responses as well. I'm thinking about this and I want to be sure that I will have at least some minor results. :D
The Latisse therapy is lengthy as the drug’s effects are slow. Results of therapy will show at eight weeks or two months. The chief benefit of using the Latisse treatment is that it’s relatively cheap therapy and not very cumbersome. Latisse is the FDA-approved treatment to grow lashes longer, fuller, darker, is easy to use, FDA approved and effective.
I have only been using it for two weeks and already seeing fuller and longer lashes I am very pleased
4 weeks for me to see decent improvement. It made my lashes grow denser as well. I have more lashes growing at the same time now. I only use it 2-3 times a week after the first 3 months. My doctor told me to expect going back to normal in 2-3 months if I stopped using latisse.

Prices do vary, even in Canada.

My friend brought up a good point about it.  If you have a lot of lashes then it works well because it makes those lashes grow longer.  If you only have a few lashes to start with then it will just make the few meager strands longer.  Mine are pretty think so I'm excited to try it.  I called and ordered it through Dr. Squires in Colorado because they were having a huge special!

Thanks Kismet42 and Britt!  I tried the eyelash extensions and I am too impatient to spend 2 hours with my eyelids taped while they put them on.  Not a fan!  My friend get them regularly but I would rather just try Latisse. :)

It only took me a few weeks, it was amazing. I am Asian so I have incredibly short lashes--so if it works on me, it should work on just about anyone! However, it has been 2 years since I started and I am sometimes lazy and skip days. If you stop using awhile, I think your lashes will gradually go back (BOO!!) I wish there was a way to make it forever! Enjoy.
Did you notice eyelashes falling out when you stopped using it

Hi Kate, 

According to the community it can take anywhere from 3 to 6 weeks to see full effects. 

Hope that helps, thanks,

-Britt
