Is it true Latisse stops working after a year or so?

Question

For a 1.5 years it worked wonderfully and I had amazing lashes then suddenly my lashes started to thin dramatically. I went back to see the Dr who prescribed Latisse and I was told a lot of her clients are experiencing the same exact results after a year or more of use. The Dr's own assistant admitted Latisse stopped working for her. So many people are experiencing the same results. Clearly Latisse does stop working. Google it and you will get a TON of results.

I am so sorry to hear that it stopped working for you. Perhaps ask your doctor whether other patients with the same issue tried stopping latisse, taking a couple month break and then trying again? Thanks for submitting this. Good to know. Best, Dr. Nazarian

I recommend taking a break from Latisse. Continue using a lash serum or conditioner/strengthener to maintain healthy lashes. Give Latisse a try again in 3-6 months.

Thank you for your comment.  We too have seen Latisse stop working in some patients after a period of time. We have tried discontinuing and taking a few months break and that has helped in some cases.  As well, we have had great success with Alphaeon Lash Serum and patients have been very happy with that product.  Regards, Dr. Matt Elias
