Will I lose my Latisse gains after missed doses for 8/9 days?

Question

I  am a longtime user (24+ mo.) of product. THANKS in advance to whomever is generous to reply! As a long-time Latisse user (24+ mo & counting) I love it... last week while traveling out of state, to my horror I ran out of product! In desperation I drew a drop of sterile water into Latisse container & shook it up hoping to eke out teensy last bit of product... that was Mon 11/19. Just got back home 11/26 & first thing I did was go pick up another bottle. I was off product for approx 8-9 days. Can I expect to lose all my gains?

Good afternoon,It is unlikely that you will lose much gain you had while on Latisse. Because you have used the product for over 2 years worst case is your lash growth slows back down until you begin use again, which you have done already. Often times my patients purchase 2 boxes at once to avoid any missed application. Enjoy your lashes. Dr. Anil Shah, MD FACS

Thank you for your question. I would not worry about missing 8-9 doses of Latisse especially if your lashes are at a length that you like. If you continue to miss doses, they will return to their "before" length but that will take many more missed doses. I hope this answered your question:)

Fortunately, you will not likely notice any effects from not using latisse for this period of time. Since the expiration dates are usually 1-2 years out, always have a back up bottle!

You should not see any major differences in growth. Glad you are having such a great result with Latisse!

Being that you are a long time user, you should be fine restarting the Latisse. There shouldn't be any major differences in growth. Hope this helps.
