The appearance of your eyes can be dulled by thin, sparse eyelashes. And, while makeup products like curlers and mascara may provide a short-term solution, they often leave you desiring a more permanent result. Luckily, if you’re seeking a better solution to healthier-looking lashes, Latisse® can help!
WHAT CAUSES WEAK, THIN EYELASHES?
The first step in amplifying your lash growth is addressing why eyelashes become brittle in the first place. Take a look at some of the common causes below.
Medical Conditions
If your lashes simply don’t grow properly or fully, it could be due to a condition called hypotrichosis, which is a loss or reduction of hair growth. It’s important to note that you should consult your doctor if you think your lack of lash growth is based on a medical concern.
Vitamin Deficiencies
Another reason for thin lashes could be a deficiency in Vitamin B, Vitamin E or iron, which often affects the growth of the skin, nails and hair.
Daily Wear and Tear
If your daily routine consists of using mascara and lash curlers, this can put a strain on lashes, making them weaker over time. Plus, most makeup products and cleansers often contain a chemical that strips away at lashes’ strength, causing them to become brittle and fall out.
Aging
Even if you don’t wear makeup, use cleansers or have a health condition, eyelashes can weaken with aging alone.
LATISSE RESULTS ARE NOTICEABLY BEAUTIFUL
Once you’ve determined your lack of eyelash growth isn’t a medical concern, you can look into your treatment options! FDA-approved Latisse® is a topical treatment for thinned eyelashes that contains the active ingredient bimatoprost, which helps stimulate lash growth. While the precise mechanism of action is unknown, it’s believed that Latisse works by helping extend the length of the hair’s growth phase and increasing the number of hairs produced.
Applying Latisse to the base of your upper eyelashes every night is all it takes! You can continue your daily routine during your Latisse treatment. After four weeks, you’ll be able to notice an increase in length, with more fullness appearing after eight weeks. After twelve weeks, you’ll see the most overall enhanced results—and after sixteen weeks, full lash growth should be achieved!
