The Miracle Growth Benefits of Latisse for Your Eyelashes
Long, dark eyelashes can be a very distinctive facial feature, not to mention an extremely desirable one. Those long lashes make the eyes pop and can be used to convey unspoken emotions with a wink or a flutter. For those who lack in the lustrous lash department, a topical medication called Latisse may just be the answer to all of your lash dreams. Used for the prescription treatment of inadequate eyelash growth, it can effectively increase lash length, darkness and fullness, as well as provide its users with several other benefits.
About Latisse
Surprisingly enough, Latisse was discovered by accident. A glaucoma study inadvertently discovered that when a test medicine was applied to the eyes of glaucoma patients, their lashes were becoming longer and darker. Latisse was then developed and approved by the FDA for this new, cosmetic purpose.
The specifics of exactly how this miracle growth serum works are a bit of a mystery. Studies suggest that Latisse extends the growth phase of hair, producing longer and denser eyelashes. It also increases the width of the hair bulb, which make the lashes thicker.
According to a 16 week study, the following results were experienced after the participants used Latisse:
- Lash length increased by 25 percent
- Eyelash darkness increased by 18 percent
- The thickness and the fullness of the lashes increased by106 percent
How It’s Used
One great benefit of Latisse is that it is safe and effective for most people to use. Treatment involves the daily application of the serum to the base of the upper lashes. Through the process of blinking, the lower eyelashes are automatically able to receive the serum. By using the supplied, sterile applicators, patients are able to ensure the safety of their eyes and avoid possible infections or reactions. Patients will need to use this product for several months to achieve the best and most apparent results, and continued use is necessary for maintaining the newfound length, darkness and fullness.
Getting Luscious Lashes With Latisse
For years now, Latisse has been helping patients with sparse lash growth get fuller and darker eyelashes that can definitely make an impression. This scientifically-based, prescription-strength “miracle growth” product has built a strong reputation. Celebrities like Claire Danes, Brooke Shields and Mad Men star Christina Hendricks have all been spokespersons, and its popularity increases as the results become more widely known.
