Bimatoprost, the active ingredient in Careprost Generic Latisse, is used to treat hypotrichosis, a disorder characterized by sparse or absent eyelashes. The formula increases the length, thickness, and darkness of eyelashes by extending the growth phase of the hair cycle.
Always check with your doctor before using any kind of medication, including generic Latisse. They will be able to tell you if this medication is right for you and show you how to use it properly.
When applying generic Latisse, be sure to use the provided applicator precisely as directed and apply the solution only to the base of your upper eyelashes. It can create unpleasant side effects if it gets into the eyes or on the lower eyelashes. It may take many weeks before you feel the full effects of the medicine, and your mileage may vary.
Notify your doctor right away if generic Latisse causes any unwanted side effects, such as redness, itching, or discoloration of the skin around your eyes. They can suggest strategies for coping with these manifestations or suggest adjustments to your current treatment plan.
