GlossaryEyelash Growth

natural process where eyelashes develop and lengthen over time

Eyelash growth refers to the natural process by which eyelashes develop and lengthen over time. This process occurs in three phases: anagen (active growth), catagen (transitional), and telogen (resting). Factors such as genetics, age, and health can influence the rate and quality of eyelash growth. Treatments like serums containing prostaglandin analogs can enhance this growth by prolonging the anagen phase.
