LIP BLUSH POST PROCEDURE INSTRUCTIONS
The color of your lip blush procedure will be 50% darker immediately after the treatment and it will start to get lighter between 4-10 days. This is perfectly normal and the true healed color will take about 4-6 weeks to come through. In some cases, it can look like the permanent makeup pigment has disappeared which is due to the healing layers of the skin obscuring the color temporarily. Your skin will be temporarily sensitized after the treatment and you should adhere to the following instructions for the next seven (7) days. This will help avoid infection and will allow time for the skin to recover.
Please try to avoid the following:
- Spicy and salty food (only 4 hours post-procedure)
- Kissing
- Using harsh cleansers, creams, or makeup on the treated area
- Facial treatments or waxing
- Do not touch or pick at the small scabs that appear after treatment. Let them slough off naturally, otherwise you may disrupt the pigment retention.
- Taking hot baths, saunas, steam, swimming pools, and salt water on the treated area.
- Sunbathing and tanning
* Should an infection occur, seek medical attention *
You can cleanse the treatment area two or three times a day using warm water and a fragrance free cleanser. Keep moist at all times with a good unscented lip balm (Dr. Bronner’s) during the healing process. Healing will take up to four weeks and it is perfectly normal for the treated area to scab. These scabs will fall off within a few days. It is normal for the color to fade during the two weeks following the treatment. The color will return throughout 6-8 weeks post-procedure.
