I am 39, and aside from the occasional zit here and there, I typically do not have an issue with acne. However, in the last few weeks, I have developed a terrible case of cystic acne all over my cheeks and jawline. It is bad enough that I am very self conscious.I have changed nothing in my beauty routine except beginning Allergan about a week before all of this began. I know it sounds crazy, but I have no other idea what the problem could be.

Answer: Acne After Latisse
The most common side effects after using Latisse are an itching sensation in the eyes and/or eye redness, which were reported in approximately 4% of clinical trial patients. Latisse may cause other less common side effects which typically occur close to where Latisse is applied. These include skin darkening, eye irritation, dryness of the eyes and redness of the eyelids. Acne is not a common or even uncommon side effect, so I would suggest consulting with a board-certified dermatologist to treat the acne. Best of luck.

Answer: Latisse not known to cause acne
This is unfortunately, a coincidental occurrence that is often mistaken for causality. Just because these two events were temporally related, doesn't mean that one caused the other.

Answer: Does Latisse Cause Acne?
I am not aware of Latisse causing acne. Many patients in our practice are using Latisse and none have reported a side effect of developing acne. I recommend you consult with a board-certified dermatologist to evaluate the breakouts and help you with effective treatments.
