• How does eyelash growth serum work?

  Regular, repeated application of this medication to the upper eyelid lash line promotes eyelash growth. The medication works to create more hair follicles during the hair-growing cycle and increases melanin production to make eyelashes darker.

• How much does eyelash growth serum through Nurx cost?

  Generic Latisse® is available for $159 for a 3-month supply. That’s about $2 per day for thicker, fuller eyelashes.

• What type of medication does Nurx prescribe for eyelash growth?

  We prescribe bimatoprost, also known as generic Latisse®, for eyelash growth. It’s clinically proven and currently the only FDA-approved product for eyelash growth.

• Who can use eyelash growth serum from Nurx?

  While generic Latisse® is generally considered a safe medication, it may not be a good fit for certain individuals. It is not a fit for patients with glaucoma, elevated intraocular pressure, macular edema, uveitis or iritis, and recent eye surgery or trauma in the last 3 months. Additionally, patients who are pregnant, planning to get pregnant in the next year, or breastfeeding will not be a fit for this medication at this time.This medication may not be appropriate for those with allergies to the active ingredient, bimatoprost, and inactive ingredients of benzalkonium chloride, sodium chloride, sodium phosphate dibasic heptahydrate, citric acid monohydrate, hydrochloric acid, or sodium hydroxide.

• What's the difference between eyelash growth serum and eyelash extensions?

  Eyelash growth serum is a prescription medication that works to create more hair follicles during the hair-growing cycle and increases melanin production to make eyelashes darker. Eyelash extensions are a cosmetic enhancement in which fibers are glued onto your natural lashes.

• Is eyelash serum safe?

  Generic Latisse® is FDA-approved for eyelash growth and is generally considered a safe medication. A licensed medical provider will review your health information before prescribing generic Latisse® to ensure it is medically appropriate for you.

  Important Safety Information: Generic Latisse® is an FDA-approved treatment to grow eyelashes for people with inadequate lashes. If you use prescription products for eye pressure problems, or have had eye problems/surgery, consult your doctor before using. Generic Latisse® may cause eyelid skin darkening which may be reversible. The active ingredient in generic Latisse® (bimatoprost) has caused darkening of the colored part of the eye (the iris) which is likely permanent. Remove contact lenses before applying generic Latisse® and reinsert 15 minutes after applying. Apply only at base of upper lashes. Do not apply to lower lid. Hair may grow outside the treatment area if it comes into contact with generic Latisse®. Common side effects include itchy and red eyes. Lashes gradually return to previous appearance if generic Latisse® is discontinued. Do not use generic Latisse® if you are allergic to any of its ingredients.

• Does generic Latisse® have any known side effects?

  If you have eyelid eczema, you may experience some worsening of symptoms.There is a possibility of eyelid skin darkening, which is usually reversible when treatment is stopped.There is a potential for discoloration of soft contact lenses, which can be avoided if you remove contact lenses before application and wait at least 15 minutes after application to reinsert them.Conjunctival hyperemia (prominent blood vessels in your eyes), blepharitis (eyelid infection), itching sensations in the eyes and/or eye redness may be side effects.Increased iris pigmentation (brown darkening of the colored part of the eye), which may be permanent, has occurred when bimatoprost was administered directly into the eye. Therefore, it is important to apply as directed (i.e. with the applicator at the base of the eyelids and NOT directly into the eye) so less medication makes its way into your eye.Be careful not to repeatedly touch areas of skin outside of the treatment areas, as this may cause hair growth in those areas. Blotting away any excess liquid with a clean tissue should help prevent this from occurring.There is a rare chance of periorbital fat atrophy (resulting in a hollowing-out appearance of the eyelids) that may be permanent. Patients should discontinue use if they start to see this effect.

• How long does it take to see results from eyelash growth serum?

  It can take 2-3 months to begin to see improvement and up to 4 months to see full results.
