Lip Blush Tattoo, a new, rapid-growing beauty treatment, has become a topic of discussion among most ladies looking to make their lips appear naturally plump & flushed! It’s a semi-permanent makeup technique performed by a trained esthetician to enhance the natural color and overall shape of lips, using a pixelating method in which small amounts of pigment are deposited to the lips to line and shade.
Many women pondering to undergo Lip Blush Tattoo have a common question rolling in their minds ‘what is the healing process like?’. Healing a lip blush tattoo takes between seven to ten days. Clients are given complete aftercare tips to ensure their healing goes as smoothly as possible.
Read the lip blush healing process: Day by Day
Day 1: (Right after the treatment) your lips will be swollen and may appear uneven. They will look bold and brighter but don’t worry; this will subside quickly. Also, your lips will release the lymphatic fluid that you must wipe down with the sterile wipes.
Day 2-3: You may still experience slight swelling, and the color will appear darker. Keep the lips moist all the time, and don’t let them dry out.
Day 4-6: You are now into the middle of the healing stage, where your lips may feel chapped and itchy as the flakes are coming away—this is absolutely normal. Do not pick at the scab; let it shed naturally. Keep moisturizing the area without disturbing the flaking.
Day 7-10: During this period, your skin completely flakes away, and you will notice the color is much lighter than it was after the procedure. Let the color settle in completely.
Day 28-42: You can see actual healed results in 4-6 weeks. There may be some uneven spots and patchiness; which is common as each person’s skin will retain pigment in different ways. An esthetician can address all such issues in the perfecting session!
Note: You have to wait for 4-6 weeks for the perfecting session not only because the skin needs a few weeks to heal completely but for the color to settle in and reveal its actual shade.
Some Do’s: After the Treatment
1. Keep your lips clean and moisturized using the ointment provided/guided by the esthetician for the first 10 days
2. Keep your lips dry: refrain from using saunas and swimming pools and sweating excessively for a few days
3. Don’t peel the dry skin
4. Avoid applying lipstick or lip gloss until the lips get fully healed
5. Avoid eating anything spicy or salty and too hot or cold as your lips are more sensitive during the healing period
