Side effects:
- The
most common side effects after using LATISSE™ solution are an itching
sensation in the eyes and/or eye redness. This was reported in
approximately 4% of patients. LATISSE™ solution may cause other less
common side effects which typically occur on the skin close to where
LATISSE™ is applied, or in the eyes. These include skin darkening, eye
irritation, dryness of the eyes, and redness of the eyelids.
- LATISSE™ solution is intended for use on the skin of the upper eyelid margins at the base of the eyelashes.
- DO NOT APPLY
to the lower eyelid.
- LATISSE™
use may cause darkening of the eyelid skin which may be reversible.
Although not reported in clinical studies, LATISSE™ use may also cause
increased brown pigmentation of the colored part of the eye which is
likely to be permanent.
