Careprost (Bimatoprost) belongs to the class of medications called prostaglandin analogues. Bimatoprost is one of four topical ocular prostaglandin analogues on the Canada market. Careprost is used for the treatment of intraocular hypertension and hypotrichosis. Eyelash hypotridchosis is the medical name given to having lashes that are not long, full, or adequate.
Lately, Careprost is being used to lengthen eyelashes. This product helps patients enhance and grow their eyelashes to avoid using “paste on” artificial eyelash enhancers. Careprost helps eyelashes grow by increasing its numbers in the initial growth phase which is the anagen phase and also allow eyelashes to grow more and more. However, it was initially prescribed off-label for growing eyelashes. The bottle contains 3ml of serum which is perfect for carrying around or storing making it easier for you to grab when you need it.

History of Careprost
The active ingredient in eyelash serums was actually found by accident. Bimatoprost optical solution was initially prescribed to treat Glaucoma. Repeated and prolonged use of this solution showed a cosmetic side effect. It induced increased growth of eyelashes, resulting in longer, darker and healthier lashes. Lumigan®, a product of Allergan, was approved by FDA in 2001 for treating Glaucoma. The patients using Lumigan for a period of time reported increased growth of eyelashes as a side-effect. Many companies are coming out with lash products to compete with Latisse. Subsequently, in 2008 Allergan got the same formula approved for a new indication called Hypotrichosis (inadequate eyelashes). In 2005, Sun pharma came out with a cheaper generic version of Latisse®, called Careprost. Now competitors to Latisse emerged with formulas that didn’t require a prescription and cost a fraction of the price!
How Careprost works
Bimatoprost under the brand name Careprost is widely used in the USA and Canada to control the advancement of glaucoma which is an eye disease that harms the optic nerve and impairs vision (sometimes building up to blindness). Manufactured by Sun Pharma, Careprost is a prostaglandin analog used topically in the form of eye drops. It is also indicated to manage ocular hypertension in patients. The mechanism of action for Careprost (Bimatoprost) lies in the increase of the outflow of aqueous fluid from the eyes to reduce intraocular pressure (IOP).
Careprost comes as drops to apply to the eye. It additionally expands the measure of time hairs stay in the anagen stage, permitting them to grow more. What’s the growth cycle of an eyelash? Typically one to two months. The lash then transitions to a resting phase before eventually falling out. This product is safe and natural option for getting healthy growth of eyelashes.
Long and luscious eyelashes add charm to every woman’s eye. Careprost is currently the only cosmetic product that is 100% safe and effective in promoting eyelash growth.
How to use Careprost to increase lash length

Apply 1-2 drops of Careprost along the skin on the base of upper eyelashes just like applying liquid eyeliner. It is strongly recommended to remove your makeup and contact lenses before applying the solution. Don’t expect to see results right away, you’ll start to notice your eyelashes are longer and stronger over time. Continue usage everyday for amazing results!
