My advise would be to discontinue use until the rash heals. Then, start again. However, if the rash reappears, you could have developed a reaction to the latisse. At that point, consult your dermatologist. Best, Dr. Nazarian

Benjamin Barankin, MD, FRCPC · Answer

Latisse may have been the culprit, or it could be a coincidental rash. In either case, treat the rash, stop the Latisse, and then you can safely restart the Latisse once the rash is cleared. If the rash recurs with Latisse use, then try using it less often, e.g. 2-3/week.

Thank you for your question. It is best to discontinue any products in the area if you are experiencing irritation. Consult with a dermatologist to determine the cause. Once this has cleared you may resume use of Latisse per your dermatologists recommendation. Best Wishes, Pablo Prichard MD

There are many causes of eyelid redness. It would be important to see a dermatologist to confirm the diagnosis.Fragrances in the air, new soaps, eye cosmetics, nail polish and skin problems (eczema, etc) can all cause eyelid redness. It's always safe to stop Latisse for a few days and see if things improve at all. That will be helpful info for your doctor as well. All in all, please see your dermatologist. Take photos along the way to show your dermatologist as well.
