Lips

About

Beautiful lips can be created by adding natural color where needed, allowing to achieve instant fullness and definition. Subtle corrections can be made to thin, uneven or asymmetrical lips and the size and shape can be altered as desired.

Blush Lips is the perfect option for individuals who just want the appearance of opaque or sheer lip color. It is also ideal for men who just want a subtle brightening effect to their lips. Combine application of permanent lip liner and lip pigments can improve lip definition, symmetry, shape, and color.

• Please note that you will be more sensitive during your menstrual cycle.

After Care

• As with all other procedures, stay out of the sun!
• Avoid swimming pools and tanning beds for two weeks after the procedure.
• Avoid eating foods that can potentially irritate the skin (i.e. spicy/hot/oily/salty/acidic food, seafood, etc.). Make sure to gently clean your lips and rinse your mouth after each meal.
• DO NOT apply any makeup on or around the lips for 7-14 days until your tattoo has healed completely.
• DO NOT pick, scratch, or rub your tattoo under any circumstances.
• After the procedure, the lip tattoo may appear too dark and look unnatural. Within 7-14 days, most lip tattoos will lighten about 30-50%, depending on the client’s skin type.
• Redness, swelling, tenderness, dryness are all common post treatment side effects.
• Lips are unpredictable, so it is IMPORTANT to notify us immediately if you notice any signs of allergic reaction or infection.

Not Recommend

• Have to be over 18 years old for the procedure
• Pregnant or nursing
• Diabetic
• Chemotherapy (consult your doctor)
• Viral infections and/or diseases
• Epilepsy
• Pacemaker or major heart problems
• Organ transplant
• Skin irritations or Psoriasis near the treated area (rashes, sunburn, acne, etc.)
• Sick (cold, flu, etc.)
• Botox in the past 2 weeks
• Antacids, thyroid and anxiety medications have been reported as interfering with permanent makeup either by affecting retention or shifting the pigment to an undesirable tone. Remember, everything we eat and drink have their own chemical structure and the electron ends that are unattached or free, may get attached to others compounds inside the body forming a new molecule that may show a different color spectrum. With that info, an educated client may have better expectation and know that she / he may need more frequent adjustments that others. The better condition your skin is in, the better the final result will be. Mature clients may need an additional one to two weeks healing for the final results to appear. The better you take care of your skin and protect it from UV rays, the better the outcome and lifespan of the permanent cosmetic procedures.
