    Post Spex’s eyebrow documentation with Lumigan (bimatoprost ophthalmic 0.03%)

    Spex’s eyebrow experiment and documentation with Lumigan (bimatoprost ophthalmic 0.03% solution ).



    I’ve never had the strongest eyebrows and after speaking to many people and in particular Dr Feriduni regarding eyebrows I’ve decided to do an experiment which I intend to document here to see the benefits of applying Lumigan for 8-12 months to see if and to what degree it can help bulk up and assist my weak eyebrows. Patients I have spoken too who have applied this to their eyebrows have spoken of solid improvements.

    I have a number of baby/miniaturized hairs in the eyebrow that hopefully with the use of Lumigan I can strengthen and salvage - Time will tell.

    Bimatoprost is a prostaglandin analogue sold in the US, Canada and Europe by the pharmaceutical company Allergan. It was first marketed under the trade name Lumigan (bimatoprost ophthalmic solution 0.01% or 0.03%) to reduce intraocular pressure in patients with glaucoma or ocular hypertension. In the UK you require a private prescription from your GP for it.

    Researchers noticed the drug had the side effect of stimulating eyelash growth and darkening of the eyelashes in patients with glaucoma.

    Allergan re-applied for US Food and Drug Administraton (FDA) approval for bimatoprost for the cosmetic purpose of eyelash growth under the new name Latisse.

    In December 2008, bimatoprost ophthalmic solution 0.03% was approved by the FDA as a treatment for eyelash hypotrichosis (inadequate or not enough eyelashes).

    BDD.... Who me ?!? ;-) All good !

    It isn't cheap however with a private PX from GP its doable here in the UK. 1 3ML bottle cost me £45 which will last on eyebrows 2+ months... 1 drop per brow per day - I will let you know how i get on and how long bottle lasts :-)

    I will update info here and on my website : http://spexhair.com/spex-eyebrow-documentation/

    Don't really understand the additional value of this experiment on this forum. Good luck nonetheless! Your eyebrows are perfectly fine too imo.

    Hi ,

    Here is a picture i took today - Definite improvement even after 2 months in my opinion. Might not be so clear in pic but in person I'm feeling an improvement. Will be interesting to see what next 4-8 weeks brings.

    When do you apply it? Once a day? Before bed?
