Eyelashes

Latisse®
If your lashes are sparse or not as long, full or dark as they used to be, and you’d like to give them a boost without turning to possibly damaging eyelash extensions or false lashes — consider booking a consultation with Dr. Hermant to discuss Latisse (bimatoprost ophthalmic solution 0.03%).

This serum is the only prescription treatment approved by Health Canada that is clinically proven to grow eyelashes longer, fuller and darker. As it is a prescription product, Dr. Hermant will meet with you to assess if you’re a good candidate, go over potential side effects and precautions, and explain how to apply it.
