Enhance your natural lips
PREPARATION​​​
​​
-
If you have a history of cold sores, it is essential to see a health consultant (pharmacist or Doctor) at least 4-days prior to treatment, and request preventative intervention.
-
Ensure the lip area is not sunburnt, damaged, chapped or too dry.
-
Gently exfoliate 1-week prior to treatment and sleep with a hydrating product (e.g. PawPaw balm, lip treatment or Bepanthen) on the lip area.
-
Repeat the above step every second night until the day of treatment.
-
Avoid Laser within 2-weeks of your appointment.
-
You’ll need to avoid laser on or near the lip area post-tattooing. I recommend ensuring any laser treatment courses are completed prior to having Lip Blushing.
AFTERCARE
​​
-
Swelling may be expected after treatment. This normally subsides throughout the day, however, may last 3-5 days.
-
Apply a cold compress or ice to the area immediately after treatment, for just a few minutes, and repeat every few hours that day.
-
Avoid applying ice directly to exposed skin, a clean tissue may be used as a barrier.
-
Avoid consuming hot drinks or alcohol for the first few days post-treatment.
-
Using a clean cotton tip, apply a very thin layer of recommended Aftercare product to the area, regularly, throughout the day.
-
Do not apply makeup to the area or touch with fingers until healed (1 week).
-
Dryness, flaking, and peeling may be expected within the first few days and is normally completed within a week.
-
The colour normally disappears at first, due to the changes in new skin. Colour will return at around 7-weeks.
-
If you experience symptoms of cold sores, inflammation, or tenderness at the treated area, notify your Artist and consult a pharmacist immediately.
-
Return for a touch up at 8-weeks.
