LIP BLUSHING

WHAT IS IT

Lip blushing is a permanent makeup procedure that delivers natural looking, long-lasting results. A tiny mechanized needle deposits pigment into the lips, which builds layers of color. This procedure will enhance your natural lip color, give the illusion of fullness, and define their shape. It can also be a corrective service to help even out the tone of your lips and help with asymmetry.

WHAT TO EXPECT

Your appointment will begin with a topical anesthetic applied to pre-numb the lips. Afterwards, the technician will draw the shape of the blushing on your lips so that you can evaluate and make any changes. The procedure usually lasts at least one (1) hour, if not longer, depending on the look you’re going for. After your appointment you will experience intensified color and swelling: this is normal and part of the initial stage of the healing process. The initial vibrancy will fade about 30-40% from what you walked out with revealing a soft and natural blush tone.

CONTRAINDICATIONS

What to expect immediately following your Lip Blush procedure:

You will require a few days of downtime following your initial appointment so be sure to plan accordingly around your schedule. The initial color intensity and swelling should regress within 3-4 days. Your lips may feel like they have a slight burn and experience minimal scabbing and/or flaking. It's very important to keep the lips heavily hydrated during this time.

We also recommend the follow optimal healing results:

Avoid hot, spicy, and salty foods as it may cause added irritation
Avoid large bodies of water, direct sun exposure, teeth whitening, rubbing and smoking
Do not pick or scratch the lips as it may lead to a loss of pigment and/or scarring
Placing cosmetic products on unhealed lips is heavily discouraged

While this list covers many contraindications, there may be others not listed above that would also prevent you from receiving services, and we reserve the right to determine what constitutes a contraindication. Speak with your skincare professional and your doctor if you have any questions or concerns.
