Latisse for Bald Eyelids?

Latisse for minimal hairs
I have a chemotherapy patient who after her chemotherapy several years ago lost much of her eyelashes and never had much hair growth return.

Speak to your physician and whether you are a good candidate for this product. We are located in Boulder, Colorado.
