Frequently Asked Questions
What is Latisse®?
Latisse® is a prescription strength medication used to treat a condition called eyelash hypotrichosis, which is inadequate or not enough eyelashes. It causes the eyelashes to grow, becoming longer, darker, and fuller.
How is Latisse® different from other over-the-counter products for eyelash growth?
Latisse® is the first and only FDA-approved, prescription-strength medication for eyelash growth. It can only be prescribed by a medical professional.
How is Latisse® applied?
Latisse® is applied to the base of the upper eyelashes once a day. Wash your face and remove make up and contact lenses before application. Sterile, single-use applicators are provided. Place one drop of the solution onto an applicator and draw the applicator to the skin of the eyelid margin (where the eyelashes meet the skin) on one eye. Blot any excess solution with some tissue. Dispose of the applicator after each use. Repeat with a new applicator for the other eye. Do not apply the solution to the lower eyelashes, into the eyes, or on anywhere else.
Can I still use mascara?
Yes, mascara can be used while using Latisse®.
How long does it take to see results?
Initial results can be seen as early as four weeks, but it takes 16 weeks to achieve the full effects.
Will I see better results if I apply more than the recommended dose?
No. Latisse® works gradually over several months. Application of more than the recommended dose will not cause faster growth.
What if I forget to apply Latisse® one night?
Continue applying the following day on the regular schedule. Do not apply more the next day to catch up.
What if I stop using Latisse®?
After stopping use, eyelashes will gradually return to their original length, color, and thickness before Latisse® was started.
Who should not use Latisse®?
People who are allergic to the active ingredient (bimatoprost) or other ingredients (benzalkonium chloride, sodium chloride, dibasic sodium phosphate, and citric acid) should not use Latisse®. Also, people with glaucoma or elevated intra-ocular pressure should be cautioned when using Latisse® as it can interact with medications used to treat this condition. If you develop a new eye condition (injury, infection, change in vision, or surgery), speak with your doctor before continuing use.
What if I wear contact lenses?
People who wear contact lenses can use Latisse®. Remove contact lenses before applying the solution. Contact lenses may be re-inserted 15 minutes after application of Latisse®.
What if I get Latisse® into my eyes?
Latisse® is an ophthalmic solution. It will not cause harm if it gets into the eyes. The eyes do not have to be rinsed.
Are there any side effects of using Latisse®?
The most common side effects are itching and redness of the eyes, which has been reported in approximately 4 % of users. This is avoided if care is taken not to allow the solution into the eye itself. Less common side effects are eye irritation, dryness, redness, and reversible darkening of the upper eyelid where it is applied. It may cause permanent darkening of iris color; however, this has not been reported in any clinical studies. It should not be used on other areas, since it may cause hair growth in those areas.

My co-worker recommended Dr. Alex, and he is GREAT!!! I have been seeing him for almost a year now and my skin looks amazing! He takes care of everything from laser treatments to botox, and on Mondays the price per unit of botox goes down $2.00. It's nice dealing with an actual doctor when it comes to these kind of needs, rather then a nurse. He is always professional and kind, and really takes his time with his patients!!!!! He also works with my schedule, and will stay late or come on the weekends if need be, he will also come to you should you really need it :)

I've been so fortunate to meet Dr. Alex! I'm hispanic and my skin produces a lot of melanin which turns my skin darker specially because I've suffered with acne for a great part of my life. I can say for the first time that I'm experiencing much improvement in my skin and the discoloration has been reduced drastically! My acne is getting under control. Dr. Alex is treating my skin with wonderful products and is very careful and concerned about the strengths of the products and watches and records any changes to address the problems accurately. I've had a few low strength peels to which my skin has responded very well and the peeling has been minimal with no discomfort. I'm very pleased with my results and will continue to trust my skin to Dr. Alex.

Dr. Alex is young and on top of all the modern advances in dermatological care. I have been visiting him periodically for chemical peels and varicose vein treatment in preparation for my upcoming wedding. He is flexible in listening to my needs and treating them around my timeline, around obligatory wedding-related events. His care and products are gentle and he really cares and gets excited for the outcome. So do I! After visiting more dermatologists over the last 15 years than I can count on both hands, I think my skin is winding down and getting the care it deserves. To add icing to the cake, Dr. Alex rolls with the current economic punches: He often has promotions and incentivizes his visits so they make fiscal sense. Thanks Dr. Alex for establishing AE Skin and caring for my needs.

I've been going to Dr. Alex for several months and he's helped me "glow"! I never thought I could feel so confident in a doctor the way I am with Dr. Alex. He handles his patients like they are one of the family and puts you at ease in all situations. My skin has improved tremendously and I look forward to investigating other procedures that are offered. I've never seen anyone but Dr. Alex and he's extremely approachable when needed.

Dr. Alex is AMAZING! If you want to get laser hair removal in L.A., he is the ONLY one to see. I was very nervous about the procedure but Dr. Alex made it so easy, comfortable and fast! Over before you know it, he talked me throughout the procedure, making me feel very calm and happy. He made it a fabulous experience and I am beyond pleased with the results! I highly recommend Dr. Alex to anyone and everyone who wants the best!!!

Dr. Alex is one of the most caring doctors I have used. When I indicated some concern about the possibility of pain during one of the procedures, he spent the time to make sure that I was completely comfortable and pain free before starting. I like the fact that he follows up after the procedure and that he takes pictures each time so you can really see the changes. I have had several procedures now and I am VERY pleased with the results. He is the only dermatologist I have recommended to my friends and family!

They are what they advertise: "See the doctor every time." I've been to other spas where I never saw a doctor for Botox or Juvederm. Dr. Alex saw me on my initial consultation and spent plenty of time answering my questions. He did the procedure himself (and it was painless) and even sent me a thank you card. That was very special. I got the results I wanted with outstanding service. No scars, swelling, or bruising. I can't imagine a better experience.

Dr. Alex is one of a kind. He is patient, empathetic and delivers results. He was able to solve problems most other dermatologists had given up on. All my friends have since switched to Alex Eshaghian Medical and we are all thoroughly satisfied with his level of professionalism and service. You can tell he really cares and wants to make a positive impact on your life. Skin health is very important to me and I'm lucky to have a doctor in Dr. Alex. I highly recommend him!

I had a very positive experience with Dr. Alex. I got a chemical skin peel before and recently filler for my laugh lines with amazing results. He was caring and thorough in explaining everything and what I shoud expect during and after the procedure. I shopped around and found Dr. Alex to offer a great deal, especially since he does the work himself.
Pejman F.

Dr. Alex is amazing! He went through everything with me about a chemical peel. We talked for about one hour about a chemical peel and how it's going to help my skin. He then answered all of my questions. Dr. Alex is the most professional and knowledgeable doctor I have seen at a med-spa. I'm satisfied with the results and I would definitely recommend him to anyone who's looking for professional skin care.
Josie R.

Before I decided to go to Dr. Alex, I was nervous about the procedure and even hesitated to do it. During my consultation, Dr. Alex gave me all the facts and explained in detail what I could expect from my results. He was gentle and very knowledgable. I would highly recommend Dr. Alex to anyone.
Bardia A.

Dr. Alex is the best! He went through everything with me. We literally spent 45 minutes just talking about a chemical peel. I didn't feel pressured or rushed. I'm the kind of person that asks a lot of questions about everything and he answered all of my questions patiently. Dr. Alex is the most professional and knowledgeable doctor I have seen at a med-spa. He has multiple publications and even writes his own blog. The experience is a great way to reward yourself. I'm very happy with the results and definitely recommend him to anyone who's looking for a professional skin care.

Dr. Alex did multiple procedures for my acne scars including a chemical peel and laser procedure. My acne scars have already improved significantly in less than one month. I highly recommend Dr. Alex for all your skin care needs and would never go anywhere else.
