Latisse for Eyebrows
Latisse is only FDA approved for use on the upper eyelids. However, that does not mean it does not work on the lower eyelids or eyebrows. I have seen the results of both areas treated and it is impressive. Just know that your doctor probably won't "recommend" it because it is not approved. I keep waiting for one of my male patients to use it on his bald spot, but I have'nt seen that yet! Maybe they should sell it by the pint?

Latisse and use on eyebrows
As many of the physicians have stated Latisse is only FDA approved for use on eyelash hypotrichosis, which is another name for having inadequate lashes. With this said I have many patients in my practice who have found it to work quite well on their eyebrows. One of my clients who is the most esteemed eyebrow shapers in Newport Beach has also told me that she has seen exceptional results with many of her clients that have used it off label in this area.

Latisse eyelash enhancer for eyebrows
Latisse is indicated for eyelid hypotrichosis, but a growing number of patients have seen successful results with application to the eyebrows. Although this is not FDA approved, the use on the eyebrows is off-label.

Latisse for eyebrows
Thanks for your question -
There are numerous reports of people using Latisse on the eyebrows with success. It has not been looked at by the FDA and there really isn't any data about #1 whether this works and #2 whether it is safe.
I hope this helps.

Latisse Works on Eyebrows
While Latisse is only FDA approved for use on the upper lash line, we have seen beautiful results from patients using it on their lower lash line and their eyebrows to help fill in spotty areas. We recommend to get an eyeliner brush because it increases the life of the product. With this brush, one drop of the latisse should cover both upper lash lines, both lower lash lines, and both eyebrows.

Latisse works well with eyebrows
Many women in their youth 'over plucked" their eyebrows. As women age thin eyebrows and lashes make a woman appear older. Using Latisse on the eyebrows (one drop each brow daily) will result in eyebrow hair growth if the hair follicle is viable making the eyebrow fuller resulting in a more youthful appearance of the face.

Latisse for eyebrows and elsewhere
The proposed concept for Latisse is that it extends the active growth phase of the follicle as well as recruiting dormant follicles to enter the active growth cycle. Theoretically and clinically, we do see enhanced growth of hair follicles in areas of application such as the eyebrows, eyelashes, and other areas. Be careful not to put this where you do not want hair growth (such as your lip or chin)

Latisse for eyebrow
Allergan has received FDA approval to use latisse only on eyelashes. There is empiral indication and quite a few people who also benefit from the use on the eyebrow. Before you attempt any off label usage, you should have a thorough discussion with your physician.
