What Is Latisse?
Latisse is the first and only FDA-approved treatment clinically proven to grow longer, thicker, and darker eyelashes. Its active ingredient, bimatoprost, extends the growth phase of the eyelash hair cycle, helping eyelash growth naturally over time.
Originally developed as a glaucoma treatment, Latisse’s ability to enhance lash growth was discovered as a side effect—one that quickly gained popularity in the aesthetics world. Unlike cosmetic products that only coat lashes or temporarily enhance appearance, Latisse works at the root level, changing how your lashes grow. That makes it a long-term solution for those looking to improve their natural lash health.
How Does Latisse Enhance Eyelash Growth?
Eyelashes go through a natural growth cycle with three phases:
- Anagen (growth): The active growing phase, lasting 30 to 45 days.
- Catagen (transition): A short period where the follicle shrinks.
- Telogen (resting and shedding): The hair falls out and a new one begins to grow.
Latisse extends the anagen phase, allowing lashes to grow longer and thicker before they naturally shed. It also increases the number of hairs that grow during this phase. Applied daily with a sterile applicator along the upper lash line, Latisse gradually enhances the fullness and density of your natural lashes.
Results begin to appear in as little as 4 weeks, with full effects visible by 16 weeks. Continued use is essential to maintain results.
Who Can Use Latisse?
Latisse is ideal for adults with:
- Naturally sparse or thinning lashes
- Eyelash hypotrichosis (inadequate or not enough lashes)
- Lash damage due to overuse of extensions or beauty treatments
- Aging-related lash loss
However, Latisse isn’t right for everyone. Individuals with eye pressure issues, active eye infections, or allergies to any ingredients should consult with a licensed provider. This is why a telehealth evaluation is so valuable—Omnia Telehealth professionals review your medical history, current medications, and symptoms to determine if Latisse is safe and appropriate.

What to Expect: Your Latisse Timeline
- Week 0-4: The initial phase. Application becomes routine. You may start seeing subtle improvements in length and curl.
- Week 5-8: Lashes appear fuller, especially in the corners and outer edges. Some users report thicker lash lines.
- Week 9-12: Significant difference in volume and length. You might feel confident enough to skip mascara.
- Week 13-16: Full results are usually visible. Your lashes look longer, denser, and darker.
It’s important to note: if use is discontinued, lashes will gradually return to their previous appearance. Maintenance is key.
Common Questions About Latisse
Is Latisse safe?
Yes, Latisse is safe for most users when prescribed and used correctly. Our licensed providers assess your eye health before recommending it.
Will it change my eye color?
A very small percentage of users may experience iris darkening, but this is rare and typically associated with misuse. Applying it only to the upper lash line reduces this risk.
Can I wear mascara with Latisse?
Yes! Many users find they need less makeup, but mascara is still safe and effective to use alongside Latisse.
How long do I need to use it?
Latisse requires ongoing use for maintained results. Most users see full effects at 16 weeks and continue with maintenance application.
Can I get Latisse through telehealth?
Absolutely. Omnia Telehealth offers virtual consults and nationwide delivery with no in-person appointments required.
How do I apply Latisse correctly?
Use the single-use applicator to apply the solution across your upper lash line each evening. Never reuse applicators, and avoid applying to the lower lash line.
