LIP BLUSHING PMU AFTERCARE

---

Lip blushing is a semi-permanent cosmetic tattooing technique that enhances the natural beauty of your lips by improving their color, shape, and definition. Using a digital tattooing device, this procedure deposits high-quality pigments into the lips, creating a soft, natural tint that enhances your lips' appearance without the need for daily makeup.

Unlike traditional tattoos, lip blushing is subtle and designed to complement your natural features. It can also help correct asymmetry, neutralize uneven tones, and create the illusion of fuller, more hydrated lips.

Benefits of Lip Blushing:

- Enhanced natural color that provides a subtle, custom shade to complement your complexion.

- Long-lasting results that last one to three years with proper care.

- Improved lip symmetry and shape.

- Creates a plumper, more youthful look without fillers.

- Saves time by reducing the need for daily lip makeup.

What to Expect During the Procedure:

1. Consultation to discuss your desired color, shape, and any specific goals.

2. Preparation where lips are cleaned, numbed with a topical anesthetic, and prepped.

3. Pigmentation where the artist uses a fine needle to implant pigment into the lips in light layers for a natural, blended effect.

4. Final touches to ensure even color and definition.

The process typically takes two to three hours. A touch-up appointment is often required six to eight weeks after the initial session to perfect the results.

Aftercare Instructions for Lip Blushing

Proper aftercare is crucial to ensure the best results and a smooth healing process.

First 24 to 48 Hours:

- Gently dab your lips with a clean tissue or cotton pad to remove any excess lymphatic fluid.

- Avoid touching your lips unnecessarily.

General Healing Guidelines:

1. Keep lips clean by using a fragrance-free, antibacterial soap to gently clean the lips. Pat dry with a clean tissue. Avoid submerging your lips in water, including swimming or soaking.

2. Apply healing balm as recommended by your artist to keep lips moisturized. Apply a thin layer three to five times a day with clean hands or a cotton swab.

3. Avoid picking or scratching the lips. Scabbing and flaking are normal, but do not pick at them to prevent patchy healing and scarring.

4. Avoid irritants, including makeup, spicy foods, hot drinks, and alcohol on the lips until they are fully healed. Refrain from using exfoliants, acids, or harsh skincare products around the lip area.

5. Protect your lips from sun exposure. After healing, use an SPF balm to preserve the pigment.

Activities to Avoid for 7 to 14 Days:

- Swimming, saunas, or hot tubs.

- Excessive sweating or strenuous exercise.

- Smoking or excessive kissing, as this can irritate healing skin.

- Sharing utensils or lip products.

Healing Timeline:

- Days 1 to 3: Lips may appear bold, swollen, or slightly uneven. This is normal.

- Days 4 to 7: Scabbing and flaking occur as the top layer of pigment peels away.

- Days 8 to 14: Lips begin to soften, and the true color emerges.

- Weeks 4 to 6: Full healing is complete, and the final color is visible.

Touch-Up Appointment:

A touch-up session is recommended six to eight weeks after the initial procedure to refine the shape, correct any fading, and adjust the color as needed. This ensures your lips look perfect and natural.

By following these guidelines, you’ll enjoy beautifully enhanced lips with long-lasting results.
