Eyes & Lashes in Sanford, FL

Latisse (bimatoprost 0.03% ophthalmic solution) is the only FDA-approved prescription treatment for inadequate eyelashes. You apply one drop to a sterile applicator each night and trace it along your upper lash line — just like applying eyeliner. The active ingredient extends the growth phase of the eyelash follicle cycle, producing lashes that are longer, darker, and fuller over a 16-week treatment course.

Latisse costs approximately $140 for a 3-month supply at Reviv Beauty — typically lasting a full growth cycle. The prescription requires a one-time consultation with Kristen-Anne Thomas, FNP-BC (free at Reviv). Once prescribed, refills can be ordered directly or through our partner pharmacy and shipped to your home.

Upneeq (oxymetazoline 0.1% ophthalmic solution) is the first and only FDA-approved prescription eye drop for acquired ptosis (droopy upper eyelids). It works by activating Müller’s muscle in the upper eyelid, producing a visible lift of approximately 1mm. One drop per eye delivers results in 5–15 minutes that last 6–8 hours.

Botox treats the forehead and brow muscles — it can open the eye area subtly but doesn’t directly lift the eyelid. Blepharoplasty (eyelid surgery) permanently removes excess skin but costs $3,000–$6,000+ and requires downtime. Upneeq is a non-surgical, on-demand option: use it daily or only before events, with instant and reversible effect. It’s also the only one of the three that actually lifts the eyelid muscle itself.

Good candidates include anyone with thin, sparse, or short natural eyelashes who wants longer, fuller lashes without extensions. Latisse is also popular with patients recovering from chemotherapy, lash extensions, or hair-loss conditions. Contraindications include active eye infection, glaucoma medications that may interact, and pregnancy/breastfeeding. We verify candidacy at your consultation.

Latisse side effects are typically mild and localized — the most common are itching and redness of the eyelid (about 4% of patients), with darkening of the iris (very rare, primarily in lighter eyes) being the most-discussed long-term consideration. Upneeq is extremely well-tolerated; the most common side effect is mild eye redness or dryness in a small percentage of users. We review your full medical and medication history before prescribing.

Upneeq works fast. Most patients see the eyelid begin to lift within 5–15 minutes of applying the drop, with peak effect at around 2 hours and full duration lasting 6–8 hours. Many patients use it before events, photos, or on days when they want a more awake, alert appearance. It can also be used daily as part of your morning routine.

Yes — both are FDA-approved prescription medications and require a consultation with a licensed medical provider. At Reviv Beauty, your consultation with Kristen-Anne Thomas, FNP-BC is always complimentary. We review your medical history, eye health, current medications, and goals. If you’re a candidate, we write the prescription the same day and your medication ships directly to your door from our partner pharmacy.

Yes — they work on different parts of the eye area and can be used together without interaction. Latisse treats the lash line at night; Upneeq treats the eyelid muscle in the morning. Many Reviv patients use both for a comprehensive eye-area refresh along with Botox for crow’s feet and under-eye filler for dark circles.

Beyond Latisse and Upneeq, we offer Botox and Daxxify for crow’s feet ($9.99/unit), non-surgical brow lifts, under-eye filler with Juvederm Volbella ($645/syringe), Skinvive skin boosters ($365/syringe) for skin quality, PDGF+ microneedling (no blood draw) for texture, and prescription skincare programs for dark circles and pigmentation. Kristen-Anne builds a personalized eye-area plan based on your concerns at your free consultation.
