Skin Care Practice in Edmonton Announces Availability of LATISSE
With the recent approval of LATISSE by Health Canada, Dr. Ashwani Singh at CosMedics is among the first wave of physicians to offer this exciting treatment for eyelash enhancement to his patients.

EDMONTON, AB, December 15, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Canadians have eagerly watched and waited for their chance to try LATISSE; and finally they can. LATISSE is now available in Canada, and it's at available at CosMedics (www.cosmedics.ca) from Dr. Ashwani Singh, a physician performing dermatology and cosmetic skincare in Edmonton. He reveals that his patients are very excited to grow their own longer, thicker, and darker eyelashes.

"In the U.S., LATISSE has experienced a surge of popularity," says Dr. Singh. "American patients and medical professionals alike are enamored with this treatment. Finally it's our turn to give it a try. Many of my patients have been asking me about LATISSE for some time, and I'm pleased that I can now offer it as an option at my practice. Approval from Health Canada lets me know that I can provide it to my patients without compromising my very high standards for safety and efficacy."

Health Canada has approved LATISSE as a prescription drug. Their guidelines establish that it will not be available from a pharmacist, but only through select doctors' offices. A topical solution applied nightly, LATISSE increases the length of the hair growth phase, allowing patients to grow their own longer, thicker, and darker eyelashes. Results begin to appear in 4 weeks with optimal improvement after about 16 weeks.

"As with any treatment, there is the potential for side effects with LATISSE," says Dr. Singh. "Of course, as I tell my patients, the risks are very minimal with proper application. That's why I think requiring a prescription from a doctor is so important. It ensures that any risk factors and preexisting conditions are taken into account and that application technique has been clearly demonstrated. It also means that, if people have questions or concerns about their treatment, they have a physician they can turn to."

The focus of CosMedics is on holistic healthcare and cosmetic enhancement. Dr. Singh and the rest of his team are passionate about finding non-surgical solutions that help men and women feel better - inside and out. In addition to LATISSE, they offer BOTOX Cosmetic, vein treatment, laser skin rejuvenation, injectable fillers, and laser hair removal in Edmonton.

"LATISSE is a great way to add a little glamour without surgery," says Dr. Singh. "In that way, it definitely fits with the philosophy of my practice. As a physician, I get a lot of joy when I see my patients at follow-up visits feeling great about the way they look. For such a simple, non-invasive treatment, LATISSE has provided a remarkable boost in confidence for many people."
