Can Latisse Cause Droopy Eyelids?

Since I started using Latisse, my lower eyelids are droopy. Is this possibly a side effect of Latisse and would it go away if I stopped using it?

Adverse Reactions from Latisse

Droopy lower eyelids are not an adverse reaction that has been reported with Latisse. Fortunately, side effects from Latisse are quite uncommon. Less than 4 percent of people experienced redness, irritation and itching of the upper eyelid which was reversible upon discontinuation. The irritation can sometimes lead to darkening of the skin on the upper eyelid where the Latisse has been applied. There have been no confirmed reports of changes in iris pigmentation thus far with Latisse... more

Latisse side effects

Any type of droopy lid has not been reported with Latisse. I certainly have not experienced it myself or seen it in any of my patients. Perhaps you are rubbing your eyes? I would have this checked by your local oculofacial plastic surgeon or ophthalmologist. You can try stopping Latisse and see if it goes away.
