Latisse® In Irvine, CA
Latisse Eyelash Treatment
Latisse® is a popular FDA-approved treatment designed to address hypotrichosis, characterized by inadequate or sparse eyelashes. As a topical solution, Latisse® is applied nightly to the base of the upper eyelashes, gradually promoting natural lash growth over time. Typically, users notice increased length within four weeks, with total lash growth achieved around the 16-week mark. Unlike cosmetic products that only provide the illusion of longer lashes, Latisse® stimulates the actual development of your eyelashes, resulting in fuller, darker, and thicker lashes. It makes it a preferred choice for those seeking a long-term solution to enhance their natural lashes in Irvine, CA.
Latisse® is ideal for individuals who experience thinning or inadequate eyelashes and wish to achieve a more voluminous lash line. While some results may be visible as early as four weeks, full results generally take up to 16 weeks. With consistent use, the effects of Latisse® can be maintained, but discontinuing treatment may gradually return lashes to their original state. If you want to see how Latisse® in Irvine, CA, can improve your lash appearance, scheduling a consultation with New Look Skin Center is recommended. Book your appointment today to start your journey towards fuller, more beautiful lashes.
How does Latisse® work?
Latisse® extends the growth phase of eyelashes, allowing them to grow longer, thicker, and darker. The active ingredient in Latisse®, bimatoprost, is believed to stimulate the hair follicles at the base of the eyelashes, promoting more hair production and lengthening the duration of the growth cycle. When applied nightly to the base of the upper lashes, Latisse® gradually enhances the appearance of your lashes, with noticeable results typically appearing after four weeks and full results in about 16 weeks.

FAQ
Who is a good candidate for Latisse?
Latisse® is suitable for individuals with hypotrichosis or those experiencing thinning lashes. It’s best for adults in good health without any eye-related conditions.
When will I see the results?
You may start to see initial results from Latisse® within four weeks of consistent nightly application. These early results often include increased lash length. For full results, which include fuller, thicker, and darker eyelashes, it typically takes about 16 weeks of continued use.
How long do results last?
The results from Latisse® will last as long as you continue to use it regularly. If you stop using Latisse®, your lashes will gradually revert to their original appearance over several weeks or months, losing the enhanced length, thickness, and darkness achieved during treatment.
Is there any downtime or side effects?
There is no downtime associated with Latisse®. Some users may experience mild side effects, such as itching or redness around the application area, but these are generally temporary.
What should I do before and after this treatment?
Before applying Latisse®, remove all makeup and contact lenses from your face. After applying, avoid getting the product in your eyes, and do not rinse the treated area.
What can I expect during this treatment?
During Latisse® treatment, you will apply the solution every night to your upper eyelashes using the provided sterile applicator. The process is simple and takes just a few minutes. Be sure to follow the instructions carefully, and apply only as directed to avoid unwanted hair growth in other areas. Over the course of the treatment, you can expect to see gradual changes in your eyelashes, with noticeable improvements in length and fullness typically beginning after about four weeks of consistent use.
Who is a good candidate for Latisse?
If your eyelashes have thinned and have less actively growing hair follicles, you’re likely a great candidate for Latisse® from New Look Skin Center and Dr. Etehad. This may be the result of overplucking your eyelashes when you were younger. It can happen due to a reaction to mascara over the years. It can be due to aging. Or you can have less than thrilling eyelashes.
The active ingredient in Latisse®, bimatoprost, stimulates your hair follicles to spend more time in the anagen/growth phase, where they may have been spending more time in transition or resting phase. Neither of those phases grows hair, and eyelashes are no different than any other of the five million or so hairs we have on our bodies.
The only real reason a person cannot have Latisse® (at least not at the present time) is if they have an active eye infection or other issues such as macular degeneration or glaucoma. Pregnant women cannot use Latisse®, as it has not been studied by the FDA in that group.
For women whose eyelash decrease is due to alopecia areata, Latisse® may not be as effective. In most cases of this type of alopecia, however, the hair will eventually grow back on its own at some point in the future.
Is Latisse painful?
When you apply Latisse® to your upper eyelids, these are painless applications. You can think of it as similar to applying eyeliner. The goal is to get the active ingredient, bimatoprost, into the area where the hair follicles are located. That way it can kick those follicles back into the growth phase of the hair cycle.
Potnetial risks and side effects of Lattisse
Latisse® is generally safe and effective. The side effects associated with it are often due to sloppy application. This can create redness in the whites of the eyes. It can make the eyes itchy and red. It can also create dryness with the person’s eyes.
In very rare instances, Latisse® can darken the eyelids if it is applied away from the eyelashes.
Allergan is the manufacturer of Latisse®, and it is the company that provides Botox and many other popular, trusted aesthetic treatments.
Is Latisse easy to use?
Latisse® is very easy to use. It only takes a few minutes every night just before bed to apply Latisse®. You simply apply it to your upper eyelashes using the sterile applicators that are included with a prescription of Latisse®.
Is there any preparation before my Latisse applications?
Latisse® works best when it is applied to clean, dry skin. You’ll want to remove all of your eye makeup and take out your contact lenses (if you wear them) before applying Latisse®. It’s a good thing to do as part of your nightly routine before going to bed.
Is there any recovery after applying Latisse?
No. These are simple topical applications. There isn’t any pain or any recovery involved.
