Discontinue use of Vitamin A skincare products (Retin-A, retinol) close to the enhancement area 2 weeks before your procedure.
Discontinue use of AHA (chemical exfoliation) skincare products close to the area being tattooed at least a couple of days prior to your procedure.
If you have lip filler, please let your artist know how long ago it was done. A minimum of 1-2 months post-filler is required before getting this procedure done.
Avoid direct sun exposure to the tattooed area for at least 10-14 days before and after your appointment. Do not have sunburned lips at your appointment.
If you have been on prescription Accutane, you MUST wait at least one year before considering this procedure.
If you are prone to cold sores, please drink antiviral pills before your procedure.
Bring your favorite lip colors or save some pictures of colors you like.
Make sure your lips are prepared. Moisturize and exfoliate your lips for your session.
Post-Care Instructions
Gently cleanse your lips at night with a gentle cleanser and warm water to prevent the build up of lymph. Pat dry. Repeat the next morning. Excess lymph contributes to lots of scabbing. After you cleanse the morning after, keep your lips dry from any liquids until the all the scabs have fallen off.
If needed, apply a clean, cold compress on the first day to help reduce swelling and soreness.
On day three after the procedure, lips will begin to peel/flake/scab and the color will start to become lighter. DO NOT pick at scabs as this can pull out pigment and result in uneven healed results.
Apply a small amount of ointment 2-3 times per day with a clean cotton swab. Only use ointment when needed, and do not let your lips become too dry.
You may experience color changes throughout the healing process. This includes patchiness and sometimes the disappearance of pigment in your lips. New tissue is forming on your lips and the color will come back. Trust the process!
Avoid soaking and getting your lips submerged in water.
Avoid direct sun exposure to the tattooed area for at least 10-14 days after your appointment.
