An interesting new study in the Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology December 2010 issue showed what many dermatologists have suspected for a long time.
Latisse™ (bimatoprost) is a topical prescription product from Allergan (the makers of Botox® and Juvederm®), and is the first and only scientifically proven product approved by the FDA to stimulate eyelashes to grow longer and thicker. It has been used as a glaucoma medication for years, and was inadvertently found to stimulate eyelash growth.
Practically each day of my dermatology practice, I hear the familiar words “it bleeds and scabs, but doesn’t really seem to heal.”
A few weeks ago I saw a pleasant gentleman who requested that I remove a few benign seborrheic keratoses (brown crusty age spots) off his scalp. He had met a younger woman and wanted to look and feel better.
