LatisseTM: Innovative Eyelash Enhancement

LatisseTM, a prescription eyelash growth product that makes eyelashes longer and thicker, is one of the many nonsurgical treatments offered by Rejuv Skin & Laser Clinic in Eagan, Minnesota. To achieve the desired results, patients must apply the product, which includes bimatoprost (a structural prostaglandin analog that binds to prostaglandin receptors in hair), to their eyelashes according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Within as little as four weeks, patients will generally begin to notice a difference, with full results achieved after 16 weeks. In clinical studies, almost 80 percent of patients experienced significant increases in darkness, length, and fullness. Lashes will gradually return to their normal appearance, however, if patients discontinue their use of LatisseTM. Before-and-after photos are available online at RejuvSkinAndLaser.com.
