Lips, Lines, and Lashes Special

lips

This month at Torrey Pines Dermatology, we are offering a special called Lips, Lines, and Lashes. We have special pricing on Restylane to enhance the lips, special pricing on Dysport to correct wrinkles and fine lines, and special pricing on Latisse to lengthen lashes.

Restylane is a dermal filler that is injected into the lips to provide more definition and volume. The lips and the lines around the mouth can show signs of aging as we age. This often results in lip thinning, lost shape, and increased vertical lines above the mouth.

Dysport is a prescription injection of botulinum toxin that helps smooth the appearance of moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows without changing the look or movement of the rest of your face. If you are looking to get rid of the lines between your eyebrows but want a very natural look, Dysport is the perfect solution. It treats the wrinkles while leaving you with movement to convey your natural facial expressions.

Latisse is a medical grade solution that is used to lengthen, darken, and promote fullness of eyelashes. When used as prescribed by a doctor, results can be seen in as little as four weeks with optimal results seen in twelve. It comes with individual disposable eyelash brushes and is sold in either a 3ml or 5ml bottle.

Take advantage of our special throughout the month of February! At Torrey Pines Dermatology in La Jolla, we are committed to providing excellent cosmetic and medical service to all of San Diego and the surrounding areas. Call our office today to set up a consultation and receive a customized treatment plan to rejuvenate your skin!

Is Latisse Right for Me?

Latisse®

Latisse® is a product that can be used to help you grow longer, thicker and darker eyelashes. It is the only product that has been approved by the FDA to help eyelashes (and eyebrows!) grow longer and thicker. While there are other products on the market that claim to enhance your eyelashes, these are usually just conditioners. Latisse® is the only product that is able to actually help you grow your eyelashes naturally.

Multiple studies have been done on Latisse®, and each one has proven that it can make the eyelashes longer. It can also double their thickness and make them darker. This is usually what women try to achieve using mascara or false eyelashes. However, when Latisse® is applied on the lash line, a person can get all of the benefits that come from using mascara or false eyelashes without needing to apply any of these products or going through the hassle that is usually associated with these things. After 2-3 weeks of usage, eyelashes begin to grow longer. After 6 weeks, thickening of the lashes is noticed.

Another great thing about this product is that a person does not have to worry about the bonding agents or the chemicals that are contained in false eyelashes and in mascara. The active ingredient in Latisse® is a well-known medication that has been used for years for an eye condition called glaucoma. Longer, thicker lashes was noticed as a “side-effect” in patients using this medication and it was then used as a cosmetic agent as well.

If you are interested in having longer, thicker and darker eyelashes, you may be wondering if Latisse® is right for you. The very best way for you to find out is to schedule a consultation at our office, Torrey Pines Dermatology, in La Jolla. Most patients benefit greatly from using this product on a regular basis and are able to maintain longer, thicker lashes.

If it is determined that Latisse® is right for you by your provider at Torrey Pines Dermatology, you will be given instructions on how to use the product. Using a small brush (that comes with the product), a small amount of Latisse® will be applied to your lash line being careful not to drip too much into the eye itself. Although not FDA approved on the eyebrows, clinical experience has shown us that eyebrow hair also becomes longer and thicker with regular use of this product.

Latisse® is an amazing product that has been able to help individuals enjoy longer and thicker eyelashes. Many of our patients have been able to throw away false eyelashes and mascara thanks to this prescription. Schedule a consultation at Torrey Pines Dermatology in La Jolla to find out if Latisse® is right for you. We happily serve clients in the San Diego and surrounding areas.

Enjoy Longer, Fuller and Darker Lashes with Latisse®

Latisse®

Latisse® is a product that has been approved by the FDA to help individuals who have thin, short, light-colored eyelashes. After using this product for about two months, patients will experience fuller, darker and longer eyelashes. If you are looking for ways to safely and effectively improve the appearance of your eyelashes, then look no further than Latisse®.

How Does Latisse® Work?

This is an extremely unique product. It is the only product that has approval from the Federal Drug Administration to be used for growing fuller, thicker, darker eyelashes. Even though there are a variety of creams and medications that are available on the market to enhance a person’s eyelashes, the vast majority of these are used only as conditioners.

Latisse® has shown time and again that it can make your eyelashes longer, thicker and darker. Many women are using extraordinary amounts of time and money to have artificial eyelash extensions placed. Fortunately, there is a more natural, less expensive and less time-consuming option with Latisse®.

Latisse® works in two unique ways. For one thing, when a person’s eyelashes go through a growth phase, Latisse® helps to make that growth phase last longer. Another reason why this product works is that individuals will grow more hairs when their eyelashes are going through a growth phase giving you fuller, longer, and darker eyelashes.

When you come into our office for a consultation, we will give you full instructions on how to use Latisse®. This product should only be applied along the upper lash line. After using this product once a day for about two months, you will notice drastic improvements in the length, color and thickness of your eyelashes. Tests have shown many times that when a person uses Latisse®, they can experience more than 25 percent longer and darker eyelashes.

In addition, the thickness of their eyelashes will increase by more than 100 percent. After you begin to notice the results of the treatment, you will only need to apply the product two or three times during the week.

If you miss a day applying Latisse®, you do not need to worry. You can just resume using the product at the next scheduled time. You do not need to use the product multiple times during the next day.

Am I a Good Candidate?

Latisse® is a product that can only be purchased at a physician’s office because it is prescribed by a physician. For this reason, it is important for you to make an appointment with the professional consultants at Torrey Pines Dermatology for you to begin enjoying fuller, longer and darker eyelashes. Our office is located in La Jolla. Contact us today to schedule your Complimentary Consultation.
