Visine and latisse can both cause redness and irritation of the eyes. If the products do not bother your eyes, go ahead and use them both. However, use them at least 20 minutes apart.
There are probably no contraindications to using Visine and Latisse concurrently however most ophthalmologists would recommend against the prolonged use of any drop that "gets the red out". It is OK to use Visine artificial tears or any other brand of artificial tears. For topical medications, you may want to allow one medication to absorb for 5 to 10 minutes before instilling the second.
Visine is an eyedrop that makes your blood vessels smaller, thus causing your eyes to appear less red. Latisse can cause mild eye irritation and redness in some patients. I do not recommend using Visine long-term with or without Latisse. Over time it can cause changes in your blood vessels, that will always make your eyes seem red, even when you try to stop using Visine. Instead, I recommend using preservative-free artificial tears, with or without Latisse for eye redness and irritation. You can use those drops indefinitely and without side effects.
I see no reason these two products cannot be used together. I would recommend, however, that you abstain from Visine use 15 minutes prior to, and 15 minutes after, using Latisse.
There are no indications of using Latisse and Visine. I would suggest using the Latisse and letting it dry, which should be five minutes after application and then use Visine if needed. Most of my patients use Latisse prior to bedtime after washing their face and removing all of their makeup. Best regards and long lashes to you!
There are no contraindications to using both Visine and Latisse. To be safe, just use them at different times of the day.
Visine is now a brand name that covers a whole line of eye drops. Some "get the red out" while others are artificial tear, lubricating drops. The good news is that any of these drops is fine with Latisse. If you need to use both medications around the same time, I would use the Visine first, wait 5 minutes and then apply the Latisse. It is fine to also use the Visine at other times. Hope this is helpful.
As the panel members unanimously agreed, the breakage/shortening of your lashes is most likely unrelated to your prolonged use of Latisse. Although anything is possible, it is highly unlikely. As also suggested, you may want to consider other contributing factors such as curling of the...
This type of procedure is perfectly safe for all type of skin colors. Your doctor can assure you that it is safe.
That is a great question and I am not sure there is an answer. Theoretically any Latisse on the eyelid applied before are after the ointment could leech into the ointment and into the eye. In these small quantities most likely it would not have any effect but it would be increased over baseline....
Latisse, the only FDA-cleared product to geom longer darker and fuller eyelashes, is applied to the skin at the base of the eyelash hair follicles of the upper eyelid. You would not be putting TRetinoin in the same area so it should be OK.
The simple answer is probably but given the fact that you do have a pretty serious condition, I would strongly recommend checking with your opthalmologist before using Latisse. I hope that helps!
Latisse is safe to use after surgery and should not affect the wound unless you put excess pressure on the wound. If you use it gently, you shouldn't have a problem but it should be discussed with your operating surgeon before you begin using it again...
