Botox for eyelashes?
Does botox for eyelashes exist? Apprently, we are about to experience it.
The same company that produces the wrinkle-filler Botox has created Latisse, an eyelash booster that promises to enhance the length, thickness and shade of lashes.
Only available under prescription, if applied daily, this new eyelash beauty enhancer boosts your eyelashes by encouraging the regrowth of hair follicles.
But, this product is a drug, and Allergan, the drugs company behind it, has warned that side effects can include redness, itchiness and a darkening of the eyelid skin (!).
More alarmingly, the company explains that any part of the body exposed to the cream could show hair growth. Watch out when applying then…
Are you willing to try it? We’d rather go the safe route and continue with our beloved Lilash which has given many of us amazing results.
But if any of you is going to use Latisse, please let us know your thoughts about it and share with us via the comments.

Great article! Thank you for putting it together. Potential patients will be better served going with a service like The Patients Advantage. It’s a great way to find the best surgeons and it does not cost anything. I found them when searching for Botox providers. Check them out.
