LIPS THAT STAND OUT WITH COLOR AND FULLNESS.


What is Lip Blush / Lip Shading?

Lip blush is a cosmetic tattoo to enhance the color and shape of lips and give the impression of more fullness. It is an incredible alternative to dermal fillers or can also be used in conjunction with fillers. Lip blush is completed by depositing pigment into the lip tissue to enhance the overall look. This procedure is designed to define lips and provide solutions to common issues such as sharpness of lip shape, uneven tone and/or color, lack of defined vermillion border, variations in shape proportions or symmetry, scars, birthmarks, and/or cleft lip.

Levels of saturation range from the softest enhancement known as the “nude effect” to a medium amount of saturation known as the “aquarelle effect” and lastly to the maximum amount of saturation known as the “lipstick effect”.

How to Choose a Lip Blush Color

  • Skin Tone: Evaluate the skin undertones. Cooler undertones may suit shades of pink or berry, while warmer undertones may complement peach or coral hues.

  • Natural Lip Color: The natural color of the lips can influence the selection of lip blush shades. Matching or slightly enhancing the lip's natural tone can yield a more natural appearance.

  • Intensity of Color: Some may prefer a subtle enhancement, while others may opt for a more vivid hue.

  • Overall Look: Consider overall makeup style and aesthetic. The lip blush shade should harmonize with your makeup routine and complement your everyday style.

  • Customization: Experienced permanent makeup artists in our Denver Medspa often customize pigment colors by blending different shades to achieve the perfect match for the desired lip blush look.

What to Expect During a Lip Blush Treatment

During a lip blush treatment, here is an overview of what typically occurs:

  • Consultation: The session begins with a consultation where the client discusses their preferences, desired lip shape, and color intensity with the permanent makeup artist.

  • Preperation: The area around the lips is cleaned, and a topical numbing cream may be applied to minimize discomfort.

  • Color Selection: The artist helps choose a suitable pigment shade that aligns with the client's preferences and complements their natural lip color.

  • Procedure: Using a specialized device, often single needle cartridges, the artist delicately applies the pigment to the lips, creating a soft, shaded effect or adding color to enhance the natural lip line and shape.

  • Layering and Blending: The pigment is layered gradually, allowing the artist to assess the color and ensure symmetry. They may use different techniques to blend the pigment for a natural-looking result.

  • Healing and Aftercare: After the procedure, the artist provides instructions for aftercare, such as avoiding certain activities and using specialized ointments to aid in healing. The lips may appear swollen or darker initially but will gradually lighten and heal over time.

  • Follow Up: A follow-up visit may be scheduled after a few weeks for touch-ups or adjustments to ensure the desired color intensity and shape.

  • The first touch up should be scheduled no sooner than 8 weeks following the first session. This touch-up appointment is crucial for the best results. Additional touch-up appointments may be needed for oily, problematic skin, those with dark pigmented skin and especially for clients who do not follow aftercare instructions properly.

    • Please wear glasses to your appointment instead of contact lenses.

    • Do not exercise 24 hours before procedure.

    • NO alcohol or caffeine 24 hours before procedure (Yes, there is caffeine in decaf coffee and tea!).

    • Avoid sun and tanning 30 days prior to the procedure.

    • For a history of cold sores- begin taking prescribed antiviral medication 2 days prior to the lip treatment.

    • If you are not allergic to Benadryl, you make take one the night before and the morning of the procedure, which may help control swelling.

    • Do not take Aspirin, Niacin, Vitamin E or Advil/Ibuprofen 24 hours before procedure.

    • Avoid Fish Oil, Prenatal Vitamins, and "Hair, Skin, Nail" supplements 24 hours prior to procedure.

    • Refrain from mood-altering drugs for at least 24 hours prior to any procedure.

    • For permanent eyeliner, discontinue the use of eyelash serums (Latisse, Babe Lash, Maxilash, etc.) a month before the procedure. These serums enlarge the blood vessels in this area and make pigment retention more difficult.

    • Discontinue Retin-A and retinol products 4 weeks prior to the appointment.

    • Refrain from use of any Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA) products close to the eyebrow area 2 weeks prior to and 2 weeks after your procedure.

  • Lip blush can last from one to three years, with the longevity depending on various factors such as lifestyle, aftercare, and individual skin type. Everyone's skin, metabolism, internal and external factors are different and as a result the length will vary. Some client's retain the pigment longer than others. Clients can get 1 to 3 years out of their procedure, I recommend an annual touchup for the best results!

  • After the procedure, there might be temporary swelling or redness, and the color may appear darker initially. Following proper aftercare instructions provided by the technician is crucial for optimal healing.

  • There are methods to lighten or remove lip blush if desired, but complete removal may be challenging.

CONTRAINDICATIONS

 
    • Must be 18 years of age or older.

    • Pregnant or Nursing: We have not researched the effects of pigment or numbing agents as they can enter the bloodstream. In addition, there is a risk of infection and blood borne pathogens.

    • Sick (cold, flu, etc.): If your body is in a compromised state of health, the inflammatory response from even our small injuries to these areas will be elevated.

    • Cancer: With cancer and cancer treatments like chemotherapy, the body and immune system is in a compromising position and we would want to limit any additional risk.

    • Hemophilia or any blood clotting diseases

    • Severe heart conditions: People who have heart diseases often are on medications that thin the blood which will cause excessive bleeding.

    • Tan/sunburn skin: From experience pigments implanted in tan skin will heal darker, and Appear Ashy and can be extremely problematic if this is not the desired result.

    • Non-prescribed drugs: If a client is knowingly under the influence of drugs or any mood altering medications that are not prescribed.

    • Accutane & Retin-A: Clients that have been taking Accutane can not have permanent makeup for 6-12 months. Isotretinoin aka Accutane shrinks the oil glands in the skin that produce sebum. Sebum attracts bacteria that create acne. This causes dryness, flaking and turnover of the skin. Retin-A and retinol OTC products should be discontinued 30-60 days prior. Retinoids work by increasing the turnover rate of skin cells. It does this by causing mild irritation to the skin, causing the cells to divide and die more rapidly.

    • Skin Complications: If you have skin which is prone to complications with eczema, psoriasis, keratosis pilaris and dermatitis. The skin is constantly flaking, itching, or aggravated chances are the skin is in a is in a constant state of unrest and shedding and is not suitable for tattooing and therefore won’t hold the pigment well.

    • Chronic Conditions: The same goes for conditions like chronic acne grades III and IV. The inherent nature of this type of skin causes easy bleeding, which once again means your skin will not retain the color very well. Additionally, excessively oily skin can cause those tattooed hair strokes to blur together and give off an unwanted solid effect instead of a naturally feathered look.

    • Compromised State of Skin and Body: If the skin is sensitive, it is likely to be easily aggravated. A good way to know if your skin is sensitive is if turns pink very easily from a little scratch. For recent trauma, a negative life event, abnormal circadian rhythm, night worker, or recent catastrophic event, a higher inflammatory response will be triggered causing less retention.

    • Moles, skin tags, piercings, scars, old permanent makeup, and generally raised skin will also not be able to retain color and therefore I try to set this expectation with clients during the consultation.

    • Hair Transplant: A commonly unknown fact is that scar tissue forms within the eyebrow transplant site. With these irregular harder connective fibers, implantation of pigment is harder.

    • Irregular State, autoimmune disorders, thyroid disease: If the body has a bleeding disorder, an autoimmune disorder such as lupus, or frontal fibrosing alopecia (scars as hair is lost),this will result in excess bleeding and prevent adequate color retention.

    • Super thin, vascular and sun damaged skin: This skin type and condition can result in the color turning cool or an ashy/gray tone for eyebrows.

    • Diabetes Type 1 & 2: Diabetic clients can experience a slower healing process. It will depend on if the condition is controlled if we can move forward with the treatment.

    • Upcoming vacation or special occasion planned: There is a healing process that can be an emotional rollercoaster. Schedule in advance to account for a touchup or schedule after the event.

    • Excessively Oily Skin: Machine Hairstrokes would not be suitable for this skin type.

    • Chemical Peel in the past 30-60 days: The skin will be in a state of unrest and exfoliation.

    • Trichotillomania: an autoimmune disorder such as lupus, or frontal fibrosing alopecia (scars as hair is lost),

    • For EYEBROWS, Botox: Wait 2-3 weeks to settle before the treatment and after

    • For EYELINER- Latisseor other Eyelash and eyebrow growth serums: These serums bring extra circulation (blood flow) to the area resulting in more growth of hairs.. The skin in that area is in a hypersensitive state and will bleed easily. Be mindful to discontinue using these at least 1-6 months before going in for a session otherwise you will instantly bleed and have a high risk of migration.

    • For EYELINER-Glaucoma: The use of glaucoma eye drops makes eyelash follicles and eyelids hypersensitive, causing excessive bleeding and poor color retention.

    • For LIPS- Filler/injectables: 1 to 3 months prior to the treatment and after the treatment

    • For LIPS- History of Cold Sores: It is imperative to have an antiviral medication prescribed by a doctor prior to the scheduled appointment.

What to EXPECT During The Healing Process

NO guarantees can be made, additional sessions may be required to obtain optimal results. This will result in additional charges. Although we give our best efforts to provide you with quality service, many factors can result in a less than desired outcome as each client will heal differently.

THERE ARE THREE STAGES OF HEALING:

  • 1-4 days- Initially, the new tattooed pigment will appear more intense than expected. Oxidation and blood rushing to the skin's surface darkens the appearance of the tattooed pigment.

  • 2-7 days- The pigment color of your procedure will be significantly softer and lighter during the healing process. The "disappearing act" is due to the immaturity of the epidermal cells. These cells have been exposed to pigment and the sloughing process disrupted. Your tattooed area will have a milky cast, diffusing the original chosen color. The pigment doesn't go anywhere. It's just not as visible through the "veil" of tissue during the wound-rebuilding stage, resulting from tattoo actuation.

  • 5-30 days- Translucency is slowly restored and you will see the pigment color deposited in the dermis. While these injected pigment tones may initially simulate the exact color chosen, it will not always be a perfect match. The tones of the injected pigment remain constant, while your own skin tones change depending upon exposure to cold, heat, sun, circulatory changes and medications.
