LATISSE® Administration Technique

Administering LATISSE® requires precision and adherence to specific guidelines to ensure efficacy and safety. The recommended application method is as follows:

1. Preparation:
   • Ensure that the face is clean and all makeup and contact lenses are removed.
   • Use the sterile, disposable applicators provided with the product to avoid contamination.
2. Application:
   • Apply one drop of LATISSE® to the applicator and then draw the applicator carefully along the skin of the upper eyelid margin at the base of the eyelashes.
   • Do not apply LATISSE® to the lower eyelid.
3. Post-Application:
   • Blot any excess solution with a tissue to prevent it from spreading beyond the eyelid area.
   • Dispose of the applicator after one use and repeat the process for the other upper eyelid using a new applicator.
4. Frequency:
   • Apply LATISSE® once daily, preferably in the evening.
