Does anybody have any idea?
As a cosmetic surgeon, I would advise caution when using Latisse (bimatoprost) with lash extensions. Here's a more detailed perspective on the subject:
Latisse is a prescription medication approved by the FDA for treating hypotrichosis (inadequate or sparse eyelashes). It works by increasing the growth phase of the eyelashes, leading to longer, thicker, and darker lashes. Lash extensions, on the other hand, are artificial lashes that are applied individually to the natural lashes to create a fuller, longer lash appearance.
The primary concern with using Latisse in conjunction with lash extensions is the potential for interaction between the medication and the adhesives or other materials used in the lash extension process. Latisse can cause changes in the growth and pigmentation of the natural lashes, which may impact the appearance and longevity of the lash extensions. Additionally, the application of Latisse directly on the lash extensions could potentially weaken or damage the extensions, leading to premature shedding or other issues.
Another important consideration is the safety and stability of the lash extension application process when Latisse is being used. The medication may alter the way the natural lashes grow and interact with the adhesives, potentially compromising the integrity of the lash extensions and increasing the risk of complications, such as eye irritation, inflammation, or infection.
It is generally recommended to avoid using Latisse while wearing lash extensions or to wait until the lash extensions have been removed before starting Latisse treatment. This allows the natural lashes to fully respond to the medication without any potential interference from the extension materials.
If a patient is interested in using both Latisse and lash extensions, it is crucial to consult with both the ophthalmologist prescribing the Latisse and the licensed lash technician providing the extensions. They can assess the individual's needs, risks, and potential alternatives to ensure the safest and most effective approach. It may be necessary to coordinate the timing of Latisse use and lash extension application, or to consider alternative options that do not involve the use of both simultaneously.
In conclusion, while the concurrent use of Latisse and lash extensions is not strictly contraindicated, it requires careful consideration and close monitoring by medical professionals. The potential risks and benefits should be thoroughly evaluated, and a tailored plan of action should be developed to ensure the patient's safety and optimal aesthetic outcomes.
