    The sides currently listed are for eye problems, which is related to it's approved use for eyelashes:

    Macular edema, eye infections, and allergic reactions are rare but potentially serious side effects of bimatoprost. However, most side effects of the medication are minor and do not require medical attention in most cases. Some of the most commonly reported (and typically mild) bimatoprost side effects include red eyes, eye itching, and increased eyelash growth.


    Any sides for people using it for hair growth? How about results as well?

    I was using bimatoprost for a couple months on the hairline area and experienced some of the side effects mentioned. My eyelid became swollen, red and a bit sore to the touch. My vision had become blurry as well. I stopped using it immediately on noticing the effects. Furthermore, i saw no change in hair quality or new growth at all.

    This is not a viable treatment for me and i honestly haven't heard too many accounts of hair growth with it.
