Is Latisse Right for Me?

    BEVERLY HILLS, CA, December 02, 2011 /24-7PressRelease/ -- If you have thin or irregular eyelashes and are tired of the effort it takes to make your lashes look lush - resorting to fake eyelashes and caked-on mascara - Latisse can be an effective solution for you. Latisse is currently the only FDA-approved treatment for eyelash hypotrichosis, a condition involving inadequate or abnormal eyelash growth. While Latisse is not for everyone, it has proven quite effective in producing thicker, longer, and darker eyelashes for many patients.

The best way to find out if you are a candidate for Latisse is to schedule a consultation with an experienced cosmetic surgeon in your area. However, there are a few ways you can evaluate your candidacy ahead of time.

Eye Conditions and Latisse

The active ingredient in Latisse will lower the intraocular pressure in your eyes. If you are already taking medications that lower your intraocular pressure - such as prescriptions for ocular hypertension or glaucoma - you should inform your eye doctor so your eye pressure can be closely monitored.

If you have other eye conditions, such as conjunctivitis and uveitis, they may prevent you from being a candidate for Latisse.

Medical Conditions and Latisse

Be sure to openly discuss every medical condition you have with your cosmetic surgeon. Certain diseases and severe allergies can affect your candidacy. Specifically, if you are taking antibiotics or medications for heart conditions, you may not be a candidate for Latisse. Additionally, pregnant women and patients with skin infections should not use Latisse.

Monitoring Your Expectations

As with any cosmetic procedure, it is important that you maintain realistic expectations about the results you can receive with Latisse. Some patients will experience more significant lash growth than others. By thoroughly discussing your goals and expectations ahead of time with your cosmetic surgeon, you can ensure you know exactly what to expect from the procedure.

If you are interested in using Latisse, be aware that you will need to commit to regular use. If the product is not regularly applied, the growth cycle of your eyelashes will be interrupted, and you will not be able to enjoy the significant results that are achieved through continuous use.

If none of the aforementioned conditions and limitations present a problem for you, Latisse could be the solution you are looking for to improve the thickness, color, and length of your eyelashes.
