LIP SEMI PERMANENT MAKE UP
Everyone would love full luscious lips and healthy colour. After a lip micro pigmentation treatment you never have to be worried about smearing lipstick on your teeth, colour bleeding on the edges of your mouth during drinking and eating. You can always be relaxed that your lip colour will never wear off.
You can choose the shape and colour of your lip. We recommend you bring your everyday lipstick with you to ensure that we match a colour you are most comfortable with. If you want only lip liner, please bring you lip liner as well.
Understanding the healing process is important as well as the aftercare. Read more below
Consultations & Precautions
IMPORTANT TO NOTE:
- Full lip colour work may take more than one treatment – a top up may be required and can be discussed at 6 weeks after the initial appointment.
- Application of intradermal cosmetics can be uncomfortable and even considered painful depending on pain threshold.
- Pigments can and will fade.
- Pigments will heal a different color than what they appear when applied.
- Infections can occur without client’s proper care post-procedure.
- There will be swelling and redness following the procedure.
- All products used are suitable for vegans and are cruelty free. Each tool used is single use and is disposed off after each treatment.
- The highest standards of hygiene are maintained and observed in the treatment room.
- Please remember the amount of pigment retained after a treatments based on your chemical and genetic makeup, over which we have no control.
- Lip liner colors will fade at least 50%.
WHAT SHOULD I DO BEFORE MY APPOINTMENT?
- Do not drink alcohol, ibuprofen or caffeine 24 hours before your appointment. This can cause excessive bleeding.
- Exfoliate your lips for 2 days prior to your treatment, apply Vaseline or lip balm and keep them well hydrated and moisturised ahead of the treatment. Dry lips do not accept colour as well and top up may be required.
- Make sure you drink lots of water to keep your lips hydrated
- Avoid waxing or bleaching the lip area 2 weeks before and after the treatment.
- You can wear makeup to the appointment if you prefer to showcase how you like your lip colour to be. All makeup will be removed before we start.
- Women should not book their appointment during their menstrual cycle as the body is more sensitive during this time causing the procedure to be more painful.
- Apply numbing cream 30 mins before your appointment if you need (ZENSA / EMLA is available from your pharmacy).
- If you suffer from coldsores and carry the Herpes virus, the treatment may cause an outbreak - so it is recomemended to use Zovirax (or similar) 7 days before your treatment to minimise the risk of an outbreak after,

FAQs
Permanent makeup can last for 1-3 years. A touch up is required 6-10 weeks after the initial appointment. Clients that choose a soft or light colour shade or did not follow the aftercare instructions may require more touch up appointments.
Factors that will cause your permanent makeup application to fade faster include: tanning bed/sun exposure, exfoliating, oily skin, profuse sweating (e.g. hot yoga 5x/week), medical conditions.
Most likely – semi permanent make up treatments usually require a top up after 4-6 weeks complete the treatment.
Since each person has a different chemical and genetic makeup, it is impossible for us to tell you in advance exactly how much pigment retention you can expect with each application or how many applications you will ultimately need. We promise to give you 100% pigment saturation with each application but the amount you retain can be unpredictable – but we can advise as best as possible vs your desired result.
Usually the more intense the colour desired or the darker your natural lips are – multiple treatments may be required. For more natural blush treatments, this may be achievable in one treatment.
It depends – Some clients describe feeling minimal discomfort and pain similar to threading or waxing; whilst others say they felt barely any pain at all. The amount of discomfort will depend on your individual pain tolerance as well as your body’s reaction to anaesthetic.
Remember that pain is experienced at differing levels with each individual client and that it is felt as a result of causing damage to the tissues of the body. During the permanent cosmetic procedure, pain can be derived in a number of ways:
> The continuous rapid needle penetration damages the tissue and may present itself as a sharp/scratchy pain.
> Stretching the skin. While it is necessary to stretch the skin for good practice, it could cause the client some discomfort, especially as the tissue has been damaged.
For ladies, you may be more sensitive during your period and it is normal to experience pain more on one side of the body than the other because of the positioning of our nerve endings.
Yes – it can be useful to see what colour you usually choose, but you don’t have to. I often ask for a picture of your lips when made up or your ideal lip colour to get an idea.
Yes – if it has been over 2 weeks since your last filler – then you are OK for a lip blush treatment.
