No, Latisse should not cause styes on the the eyelid. If it persists, I recommend following up with your Doctor. Keep in mind, eventually Latisse results may plateau. A combination approach is needed. In combination with Latisse, I typically inject and apply topically PRP for a few treatments at the beginning to improve the growth rate of the lashes. Take viviscal as well. See an expert for a formal evaluation. Best, Dr. Emer
Latisse does not cause styes as the solution is sterile. However, you should make sure that you are only using the provided applicators once -- reusing them can introduce bacteria to your lash line thus causing a stye.
Styes are caused by bacteria that gets into and irritates the oil glands of the eyelids. I would make sure to cleanse the skin prior to applying the solution. Latisse comes with applicators that are to be used for applying the solution. The label should indicate that the applicators are for one time use only. I hope that I have answered your question. I recommend following up with a Dr. to ensure you are not having a reaction to the product.
Latisse will not cause you to get a sty. It is a sterile solution. It can, however, cause darkening of the skin along the hair follicles of the eyelashes which is harmless. Many people wear eyeliner there anyway and don't care and some don't experience this effect at all.Best of luck to you!Dr. Cayton
Hi caroldonahue,Latisse does not cause styes. However, if your eyelids got irritated and got infected by the bacteria on the skin, this will predispose you to developing styes. Even infected mascara wands can transmit infection from one eye to another.All the best, Justin Harper, M.D.

This is not due to your use of Latisse. The only iris discoloration associated with this medication is the formation of brown spots, and these don't occur if the medication is used correctly. This happens due to enhancement of the iris's pigment in random spots. ...
The prescription bimatoprost , marketed as Latisse, is FDA approved for lengthening eyelashes. There are other non-prescription peptide containing products which have been shown to enhance eyelash & brow growth. RevitaLash is one such product. Remember it will take 6-8 weeks to notice a di...
