Can Latisse make your eyes appear bigger?

Question

Hi. I know I ask a lot of questions on the eyes but I heard that Latisse can make your eyes appear bigger and that it grows eyelashes? Is it safe to use? Is it a non surgical option to make your eyes look larger?

Frank Lista, MD · Answer

Latisse is a product that thickens, lengthens and darkens your eyelashes as well as stimulates your eyelash growth. The subsequent growth of your eyelashes may give your eyes the appearance of being bigger but doesn't make your eyes bigger per se. Latisse is a product that you administer at home and that should be applied to your lash line daily. It is safe as long as it is applied correctly. In order to assure that Latisse is the right treatment for you, you should consult with a nurse aesthetician. There are some cases in which Latisse should not be used such as if you have severe allergies or are prone to skin infections for example, or if you have specific eye conditions.

Latisse is designed for eyelash improvement. That being said, the alteration of eyelashes can reflect a different/wider eye shape. It is a safe/ reliable product. Best, Dr. Emer.

LATISSE – the first and only FDA – approved prescription treatment for hypotrichosis used to grow
                    eyelashes, making them longer, and darker. Eyelash hypotrichosis is another name for having
                    inadequate or not enough eyelashes.
