Question

Frank Lista, MD · Answer

Latisse is a
prescription treatment for longer, fuller, and darker lashes. 
Before
starting Latisse or any other treatment, it is advised that you speak with your
doctors to ensure there are no contraindications or adverse side effects that
you can experience. 
Once you
have completed your chemotherapy, your own natural lashes will grow back, Latisse
can help make your own lashes grow faster, thicker and darker. If you
discontinue using Latisse, your lashes will return to their natural state.
