Common Questions and Answers about Lumigan hair
lumigan
regarding Lumigan and others like it, have people experienced growth of eyebrows and hair elsewhere as well like scalp hair? or is there good understanding of the active ingredients,that they can also help brows and scalp hair too?
I am not only thinning fair eyelashes, but also fair hair and eyebrows and in my 40s with only slight graying. so has lumigan been studied long enough to know if fair skinned/hair people get similar darkening and lenghtening benefits?

The glaucoma drops Xalatan, Lumigan and Travitan Z grown eyelashes in about 70% of the people that use them. The FDA has just approved a formulation of lumigan called Latisse for use to grow eyelashes.
for several days my eye dr has been treating me for eye problems related to a chemical splash ( hair dye remover that the beautician got in my eye when having eyebrows dyed. Hospital flushed it out then saw eye dr. he gave me tobradex It seemed ok for a while then the eye started to tear continuously,and the eyelid swelled. then my pressure spiked ( i have had workup for glaucoma pressure has spiked before) he thought he would start glaucoma protocol and he put lumigan drop in.
I have been using the exact same solution, as an eyedrop called LUMIGAN, to treat glaucoma for about 10 years. You see, it has this unusual side effect of making eyelashes longer and darker. It was only recently that the ophthalmic drug company Allergan, decided to use this long known side effect of bimatoprost 0.03% solution (known as the glaucoma drug LUMIGAN) to create LATISSE to be marketed to our increasingly appearance driven society.
Hair loss is not a problem with glaucoma drops and in fact one group of drops (prostaglandin antilogs-Xalatan, Lumigan, Travitan-Z) actually grown hair. About 70% of people on these medications exhibit thicker longer lashes. The makers of Lumigan recently started to market the very same drops under the name Latisse for eyelash growth. I understand that they also looked into using it as a treatment for baldness but its too expensive to cover a large area like the scalp.
