You have probably heard about Careprost, an eyelash enhancer that has been on the market for so many years. If you have no idea about the safety and efficacy of this product, you’re in the right place. Here, you will learn how it works as an eyelash lengthener.
Careprost is a glaucoma medication available as an ophthalmic solution. Bimatoprost is the active ingredient that was first used to treat glaucoma. Patients who used Bimatoprost eye drops to treat ocular hypertension often noticed eyelash growth as a side effect. They noticed that the lash strands became longer and darker over time.
Clinical studies suggest that Careprost not only lengthens but also darkens and thickens eyelashes by a process that is not fully understood. It is believed that, like the hair on your head, eyelashes sprout, grow for a while, and eventually fall out. There is a complete hair cycle that also works for eyelashes. Bimatoprost in the product promotes hair growth by extending the hair growth cycle and increasing the number of hairs that sprout.
You apply this eye drop by touching it to the upper lash line using a sterile applicator that comes with the preparation. The careprost solution spreads to your lower lash line automatically as you blink. Therefore, applying it to your lower lash line is unnecessary. Manufacturers suggest that you never apply it to your eye or lower lid, as it may increase skin pigmentation and promote hair growth beyond the eyelid margin. You must clean your face before applying it. In addition, if you have applied makeup or wear contact lenses, then make sure to remove both before using the product.
After two months of continuous use, you begin to notice a difference in your eyelashes. After four months, once you have achieved the desired results, start using it on alternate days or twice a week to maintain them. Never try to stop using it. Otherwise, your lashes will gradually return to their previous state.
