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

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!

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!

If it's any encouragement, I'm at 11 weeks of use and beginning to see most definite eyelash length growth, although they're not thicker. I'll keep patient, as I have been told that I have adrenal fatigue by my holistic doctor, so I guess that the low adrenals could contribute to slower progress. Just try to be patient with yourself.

Thanks for reaching out with your comment. I'm thrilled for the results that you've gotten, and I'll just be a little more patient and stop comparing my progress with everyone else. We women do that much too much. Keep up the good work. You must look fabulous!

Boy, thst gives me hope. At 7.5 weeks, I see no change, but I'll calm down and wait a little longer! Thanks for the info.
