I used latisse for three months and love my lashes. Recently I noticed dark long hairs right around my orbital region. Research suggested I was using too much latisse or applying it on my lower lashes as well ( which I was). I have since stopped latisse so those unwanted hairs will go away. Can I wax the unwanted hair while carefully applying latisse on the upper lid again? Or will the removal of the hair before it falls out on its own cause the hairs to continuously grow? Thanx so much!

I am sorry that you
have problems with an over the counter product that claims to do things that
only the FDA approved product can do – which is grow eyelashes. Latisse does
turn iris colors in a very small amount of people and this is something that we
all tell our patients before they start u...
Yes you should be able to purchase latisse from a physician. In our clinic we have treated alopecia and loss of eyelashes, eyebrows with latisse. Although not perfect, there was a visible improvement after a few weeks of latisse
Latisse only affects the area in which it is applied or comes in contact with. This would be the upper eyelash line. If you are applying it to your public area, then it could encourage growth but if you are not, then it won't.
