About Lip Tint Tattoo

What is it?

Lip tattooing is a semi-permanent cosmetic procedure whereby you can have the effects of wearing lipstick without the hassle of applying it, smudging it and reapplying it throughout the day.

Known by a couple of names, such as lip tint tattooing, lip staining, lip blushing and ombré lip tattooing, it’s more about enhancing lips to give them the illusion of fullness, rather than adding actual volume into the lips like fillers do.

Who is lip tattooing best suited for?

It is a fuss-free alternative for someone who isn’t big on applying makeup. We can also apply stronger definition around the lip line and graduate the colour into barely noticeable towards the centre of the lips; this is known as a ‘lip blend’ or ombré effect.” This approach is for those who wants their lips to look bigger and more prominent, without them looking fake. “Some women are afraid to turn to injections because of the dreaded ‘duck lips’. Lip tattooing can give definition and fullness without the need for cosmetic fillers.”

How long does it last?

Typically 1-3 years depending on your skin type.

Does it hurt?

Depending on your skin but we do put on numbing cream before and during the procedure.

What’s the process?

Topical anaesthetic is applied to the lips to pre-numb the area. The tattooing itself can take 45 minutes to one-and-a-half hours. You feel pressure on the lips and buzzing from the machine. Once the anaesthetic wears off you will not be in pain. You will feel as though the lips are very stimulated.

Note: If you’re prone to cold sores, you should take anti-viral medication before your procedure. The stimulation of the needles may potentially cause cold sores to appear, which can negatively impact the healing proce

 After Procedure Care Instructions ‍‍‍

*Immediately following the procedure, lips may feel dry, chapped, tight and tender to the touch.

  • Apply ointment on lips several times a day. This should be done for at least 10 days post treatment.  Do not allow lips to become dry. This may interfere with healed color. During the day if lips feel dry, apply a light layer of ointment. Make sure to dab/press onto skin, do not rub it in.

  • Itching is normal, DO NOT PICK!

  • No soaps, cleansing creams, or chemicals on lips. Wash your face carefully avoiding the lip area for 10 days.

  • Avoid moisture to the lips such as hot soups and hot coffee for 10 days. Drink everything through a straw until lips completely peel.

  • DO NOT stretch the lips. Avoid biting into large sandwiches, etc. Cut food into tiny bites.

  • Do not bite into greasy, oily, salty or spicy foods, rather cut them up and place them into your mouth.

  • While eating, do not constantly wipe your lips with a napkin or keep licking your lips at this will impede the healing process. DO NOT PICK dry healing tissue or you WILL remove the pigment color!

  • Avoid water on the new pigmented areas as much as possible, the first 7 days. (when showering, washing face, etc. have ointment on the pigmented area to protect lips from water). Do not stand in front of shower head when showering.

  • Avoid underwater swimming and batching for a minimum of 4 weeks to avoid bacterial infection.

  • Before brushing your teeth, seal lips with ointment first. Put cotton balls in gum areas so toothbrush will not rub against the lips. No whitening toothpaste (during the healing process). Use a small amount of toothpaste. Take a straw with you to the bathroom to retrieve water to swish with. Do not bleach/whiten your teeth while your lips are healing (about 2 weeks).

  • You may apply an ice pack (which must be protected with a wet barrier film of paper toweling, towel or cloth) for 10-minute intervals for the first 48 hours. Ice may be applied every hour or so, if desired. Do not put ice directly on area.

  • Do not expose the lips to direct sunlight or tanning beds for 4 weeks. This is new skin and will sunburn easily and direct sun prematurely may also cause scarring and alter pigment color.

  • You may wear lipstick, lipgloss, and chapstick after 10 days, make sure the tube of lip product is new.

  • Sleeping slightly elevated will help prevent swelling. It’s recommended to sleep on your back on a satin pillow case. If the pillowcase is not satin, you may also wrap your pillowcase at night and replace with a fresh wrap in the morning. This keeps pigment from sticking to the pillowcase at night.

  • No smoking while lips are healing (10 days minimum).

  • No kissing, rubbing or friction on your newly tattooed lips for 48 hours or you may lose pigment.

  • Lips may be dry for 3 to 6 months depending on the body reaction.

Expect moderate swelling, usually one to three days following the procedure. Scabbing may make the lips feel thick. Lips will fade up to 50% after the first 5 days. While healing, the tattoo will look patchy. This is due to skin regeneration and healing. Two or three sessions may be required to achieve the desired results. Please be patient.  Cosmetic tattooing is a multiple-step appointment process with a healing time of approximately 6 weeks in between touch up appointments.

If infection occurs, please contact your physician asap.
