What's thick, long, and black?









It could be your eyelashes, thanks to the newly FDA approved treatment known as LATISSE. With a disposable applicator, the solution is applied to the upper eyelid margins each night before bed. Within a few weeks, you will have longer, thicker, darker lashes! This is a drug that requires a prescription and we can talk about whether you are a candidate.

The downsides appear limited:

1. 4% of the people who used this complained of an itching sensation or red eye
2. There can be a slight darkening of the skin adjacent to the lashes which is permanent
3. If you stop using this product all of the added lash length, thickness, and new lashes are again lost. You are back to where you started-much like Cinderella after the clock struck midnight.

If you have any questions, concerns, or would like to discuss LATISSE any further, please give the office a call or drop an email.
