Question: I have been using Latisse for about six weeks now, and I have noticed some improvement as far as fullness goes. However, I have also noticed that my lashes are more brittle and prone to breakage than they used to be. Is it possible that the Latisse is making my eyelashes less healthy?

Answer: That seems a bit unusual as, typically, Latisse is going to make the lashes stronger not more brittle. You may be noticing that you have some broken lashes now, simply due to the fact that you are paying more attention to your eyelash area since you are using the Latisse product. More than likely, you have always had some breakage of lashes but this went unnoticed due to the fact that you were not as fixated on your lash growth as you are today. Overall, Latisse tends to make the eyelashes healthier, not more brittle and, certainly, if you are concerned about this, you can always discontinue the use of the product to see if the brittle nature of the lashes goes away as the results from Latisse are only temporary and exist only as long as you are continuously using the product.
