Latisse
Eyelash Growth Serum
Achieve fuller, longer, and thicker lashes without extensions or mascara
Latisse is a product approved by Health Canada for enhancing eyelash growth. It contains a compound called bimatoprost which extends the growth phase of hair while also increasing the percentage of hair in the active growth phase. Scientific studies demonstrate that eyelashes become longer and thicker when it is applied on the upper lid lash line nightly.
As Latisse is a medical product, a consultation with one of our physicians is required.
How Do I Use Latisse?
- Before applying, wash and dry your face thoroughly
- Hold the applicator horizontally and place a drop of Latisse on the base of the applicator brush. Be careful not to touch the applicator brush when removing it from its sterile packaging.
- From the inside to outside of the upper lid lash line, brush the applicator along the skin where the lashes meet the eyelid. Do not apply to the lower lash line. Dispose of the applicator.
- Repeat on the opposite upper eyelid with a new applicator
- Blot excess liquid beyond the lash line with tissue
