Latisse is the first and only FDA-approved prescription treatment used to make eyelashes longer, thicker, and darker. If you suffer from ‘hypotrichosis’ (insufficient or few eyelashes), our Latisse offers a way to achieve dramatic results under physician supervision.
The active ingredient in Latisse is bimatoprost. Scientists first applied this medication to create eye drops for glaucoma treatment but they discovered it worked well to lengthen the anagen phase which controls eyelash development. The daily application of this product enables you to preserve your lashes on your eyelids for an extended duration.
One of the most frequent questions patients ask is, “How fast does Latisse work?” While every individual is different, the clinical timeline is generally as follows:
Important Note: With Latisse, “if you don’t use it, you lose it.” To maintain your new, lush look, consistent application is key. At Celibre, we help you individualize your treatment, often reducing the frequency of application once you’ve reached your goal.
Many people search on Google to find out if Latisse delivers effective results when used for eyebrow enhancement: “Does Latisse work on eyebrows?” The medical approval for Latisse only covers upper eyelash treatment but doctors and their patients have successfully used the product to enhance their weak eyebrow hair. The bimatoprost formula functions with hair follicles which share the same structure so it produces better eyebrow thickness but medical supervision remains mandatory for its application.
Latisse functions as a pharmaceutical medication which differs from cosmetic serums. The product requires medical supervision for its safe application because it needs to be handled with care. About 4% of patients in clinical trials developed side effects which doctors could manage because these reactions showed mild intensity.
To maximize safety and results, follow these steps:
The price of Latisse depends on the size of the kit which comes in 3ml and 5ml options along with your particular medical treatment requirements. Our clinic at Celibre operates as a medical facility which provides a safe environment where patients receive their highest possible return on investment.
No. If you stop using Latisse, your eyelashes will gradually return to their original appearance over several weeks to months.
Yes! Many of our patients with permanent eyeliner find that Latisse adds “extra drama” and volume that makeup alone cannot provide.
While iris darkening was not reported in the specific Latisse clinical trials, it has occurred with similar bimatoprost drops used inside the eye. When applied correctly to the skin of the eyelid, the risk is extremely low.
Since Latisse is a prescription medication, you must have a consultation with a medical professional. If you are in the Torrance or Southern California area, Celibre Medical is ready to guide your transformation.
