Does Latisse Grow NEW Eyelashes

Dear Patient from Vancouver,

Latisse does not necessarily cause new eyelashes to grow. A better description of its effects would be that Latisse wakes up sleeping eyelashes. All the hair in our body cycles through various phases of growth and rest.

Latisse causes those hairs in the resting phase to wake up and start growing again.

This is how this interesting medicaiton has its effects.

Good luck with your treatment.

Sincerely,

Adam J. Scheiner, M.D.

Latisse keeps
the eyelashes in their growth phase. After 8 weeks use, clients can generally
see their lashes becoming longer, thicker and darker. These results will be
maintained with the continued use of Latisse. Once you cease use of the product,
the lashes will return to their original state.  
 

As suggested by the other experts, Latisse does not appear to grow new eyelashes. Instead, it simply enhances the growth of eyelashes that are already there making them longer, thicker, and darker. 

I hope that helps!

Latisse is well-known to enhance existing eyelashes - to make them darker, thicker and longer. It does not create new eyelashes - its a very effective medicine, but not a miracle worker ;)

It is known that Latisse extends the growing phase of your existing eyelashes.   The result for you is longer, fuller, darker eyelashes that won't run or smudge even when you swim, exercise, or get teary eyed.

Improvements from this product appear gradually as eyelashes grow in and are replaced. In as little as 4 weeks, you should begin to notice your lashes becoming thicker and fuller. These improvements will continue as lashes grow longer, with ultimate results reached in 16 weeks. To sustain your enhanced eyelash growth, continue daily treatments; otherwise, your lashes will gradually return to their pre-treatment state. Check out the link below to learn more.
