Eyelash Extensions During GLP-1: Before You Book

Planning a lash appointment during GLP-1 treatment? Include eye care in the decision.

Ask about training and hygiene

AAO recommends asking about the technician's lash-extension training and experience, salon hygiene, glue ingredients and expiration date. Its guidance lists eyelid or corneal injury, infection, allergy and temporary or permanent lash loss among possible harms. [2]

Postpone cosmetics on inflamed skin

FDA advises avoiding eye cosmetics during an eye infection or inflammation around the eye until healed. It also recommends clean instruments and washing hands before application. [1]

Do not pull off the lashes

AAO warns that rubbing or tugging can break natural lashes and damage follicles. For an allergic reaction to extensions, it advises seeing an ophthalmologist immediately rather than attempting removal or treatment yourself. [2]
