What you should know about Latisse

How does Latisse help with eyelash growth?

It is believed that bimatoprost, the active ingredient in Latisse, extends the growth phase (anagen) of the eye lashes stimulating hair growth. The exact mechanism is not fully understood yet. It is believed that it affects the hair follicles and the prostaglandin receptors because bimatoprost is structurally similar to prostaglandins (naturally occurring substances in the body involved in various physiological processes²).

Scientists believe this interaction extends the growth phase of the eyebrows, allowing them to grow longer, thicker, and darker over time³.
