Eyelash Enhancement Birmingham, AL

Eyelash Enhancement

Thick, lush lashes are always attractive – but you may not be blessed with this feature, or your lashes have become thinner and shorter over time. Adding mascara, getting extensions, or wearing false eyelashes are all options, but why not grow thicker, longer, natural lashes with the help of Latisse?

What is eyelash enhancement?

With prescription Latisse, your lash growth is stimulated by the medication, causing your lashes to grow longer and darker with a simple application of the product on your upper lash line. The effect of the lash serum takes time to work, but if you continue to apply it as directed, you will have thicker, fuller, longer, darker lashes for the long term. Other eyelash enhancement options include lash extensions or dying your existing lashes.

What is Latisse?

Latisse is a doctor-prescribed medication that is FDA-approved for eyelash enhancement. Inadequate lashes are technically termed “hypotrichosis.” The lash-enhancing effect of Latisse (or bimatoprost) was discovered when the medication was administered to treat glaucoma, an unexpected side effect that led to the produce achieving FDA approval as a lash growth treatment.

Candidates for lash enhancement

If you struggle with any of the following, you may be the ideal candidate for lash enhancement:

Thin, short lashes
Due to aging, your lashes have thinned
You are tired of other lash enhancement treatments, such as lash extensions or false eyelashes
You want your lashes to be thick, lush, and dark

How is lash enhancement performed?

To apply Latisse, ensure your face is fully cleansed and free from makeup, and contact lenses removed. The product is applied with a sterile applicator. One drop is placed near the end of the tip of the custom applicator (included with the product) and then drawn across the upper lid. It is not applied to the lower lids, as the product is naturally applied to the lower lashes when you blink. Blot any excess, and throw away the applicator. It is applied once a day.

Recovery time

There is no recovery time associated with this advanced eyelash growth serum, but you will need some patience to see the results appear. Your eyelashes have a growth cycle, and you will start to see longer lashes in about four weeks. The only side effects that have rarely appeared are changes in eye color or a darkened upper lid. Some people are not candidates for this eyelash serum, particularly those who have an active eye infection or disease.

Why Choose Rousso Adams for Eyelash Enhancement in Birmingham?

Latisse is a prescription medication, not an over-the-counter serum, so it starts with a physician evaluation. A review in Clinical Ophthalmology notes that the FDA approved Latisse (bimatoprost 0.03%) specifically to increase eyelash length, thickness, and darkness in people with inadequate lashes, a condition called hypotrichosis.

Prescribed after a physician review. Dr. Rousso and Dr. Adams review your eye health and medical history before prescribing. Latisse isn't right for everyone, including people with an active eye infection or eye disease.
Guidance on side effects. Rare effects such as darkening of the upper lid or changes in eye color are discussed upfront, so you know what to watch for and when to call.
Eyelid specialists. Dr. Rousso has published on eyelid surgery, including transconjunctival and extended lower eyelid blepharoplasty, and both surgeons perform eyelid surgery routinely.
Options beyond a prescription. For lash and brow care without a prescription, the practice also offers RevitaLash and Revitabrow® conditioning products.
Clear instructions for lasting results. You'll learn how to apply the treatment correctly and what to expect over the lash growth cycle, since results are maintained only with continued use.
