i got lumigan with 0.1 ml. Does that mean it's less in drops or less bematoprost? (Photo)

Question

If the bimatobrost in 0.1 ml is less than 0.3 well I have the same results? On my lashes?

Jeff Donovan, MD, PhD · Answer

Lumigan (bimatoprost 0.01%) is a less concentrated form. Both Latisse and Lumigan contain the chemical Bimatoprost.  The concentration in Latisse is 0.03% - so roughly three times the concentration.All the studies on eyelash growth that were submitted to the FDA for FDA approval were done using the 0.03 % concentration.Does 0.01 % do something? Yes, it seems to but no formal comparative studies have been published yet.

Matthew Elias, DO, FAAD · Answer

Thank you for your question.  Lumigan 0.1mg/mL is Lumigan (Bimatoprost) 0.01%, this is 1/3rd the concentration of Latisse which is Bimatoprost 0.03%.  There are no studies that I am aware of on efficacy of Bimatoporst 0.01% for eyelash growth.  It is not that it is less drops.  Regards, Dr. Matthew J. Elias
