I have been using Latisse for a for a few months and I have a brown ring around my lower lids and a large fat pad between my lower lid and the brown ring. This is new. I stopped using it. I am hoping this side effect will subside with time. Do you have any experience with this and how long it might take for my eyes to return to normal. Also is there anything I can do, aside for discontinuing use to aid in the healing. Thank you.
