“Itchiness, Redness, Swelling After First Few Days of Latisse Use - Atlanta,GA”

Okay. Let's both be diligent and patient a little longer. Let me know how you're doing in a few weeks!

Becca, thank you so very much for reaching out to me and taking the time to add your comment. Since I wrote the original comment, a few months ago, the redness and swelling disappeared, but it still feels itchy after I apply the Latisse, but I have learned to live with it and try to ignore it. I have been using the product now for 12 weeks, and I too have had very nice results; however, unlike lucky you, it didn't really take effect until about 10 weeks into it. I also use that 1 drop in the cap with a thin eyeliner brush for both eyes and there is enough left over to paint my thinning brows. Boy, my brows have really darkened and plumped up. The results on the brows have been much more dramatic than the eyelashes! I am very glad that you are already seeing results. That's awesome. I can't wait until I get to the "maintenance" stage and can use the product less frequently. Some folks use it in maintenance 3 days a week, some even just once or twice a week. Won't that be great? Keep up the good work!

You know the phenomena of "I don't see the change" is normal because I kept doubting my results also until I did a test:-) I pulled on my eyelashes and none came off (stronger) and then I noticed that they are naturally curling up! curling up! This never happened before. I gifted myself with mascara, not an expensive type, and put mascara on to showcase my curling eyelashes. And I was soooo pleased that when I look sideways, there really are eyelashes there and my husband said, "Of all the things you spend on your cosmetic procedure, I support this wholeheartedly." He was after all the one who told me to go ask our dermatologist about it. I need to tell my coworker about its result on your eyebrows; she was looking for a product and this is going to excite her. My dermatologist told me that after my final results, I will use Latisse only twice a week. I also saw a generic version on the Internet for the chemical that is in Latisse. I am wondering if that would be a good maintenance solution. Just hang on--"results may vary" seem to be in effect here too. BTW, the lady at my doc's office showed me her results. I will be honest- I was not too thrilled with her results, she had exaggerated long lashes only on the center--she looked like she was wearing some spider legs only at the center and I thought I would have mine trimmed if that happens to me! So beware to us, we may get what we asked for! For now, cheers to your beauty!

Thanks again for sending me your comments. Yeah, "results may vary" is so true. If you read the various postings on this website, boy, is there variability in people's responses. I'm sure that our genes have a lot to do with it, and maybe the current state of our immune system. I have more spidery length (and in the center, like the lady you mentioned) and not much full, rich results on the lashes, but there are still about 2-3 weeks before I reach the 16-week mark, so I'm hoping that more progress is still in store. My eyebrows are now actually darker than my natural brunette hair color, but it's fine. I threw away my eyebrow powder, as I certainly don't need to fill out my eyebrows with shadow anymore. Thanks for telling me that your dermatologist said maintenance would require only 2x week. That will be so helpful. I can't imagine how long one little bottle would then last! Enjoy your new mascara, and your husband's compliments! You have worked very diligently and faithfully to get to this point. Good job!
