- Place one drop on the single use one per eye applicator.

- Sterile applicators may only be used on one eye and then discarded. Reuse of applicators increases the potential for contamination and infections.

- Do not use Latisse more than once per day. Additional application will not increase results but will increase the risk of possible complication and side effects.
- Upon discontinuation of Latisse eyelash growth is expected to return to its pre-use level.
- Do not use Latisse on any other areas of the body. Studies have not been performed as to the safety and effectiveness in any area other than the eyelashes.
