Lipblush Aftercare

Stay Away from Makeup
Avoid using lipstick or any other makeup products on your lips for at least a week after the procedure. Using makeup can introduce bacteria to the area and irritate the healing tissue.

Sun Protection
Protect your lips from sun exposure by using a lip balm with SPF (at least SPF 30) after the initial healing period (around 1-2 weeks). The sun can fade the tattoo and irritate the healing skin.

Avoid Touching Your Lips
Refrain from touching your lips with dirty hands, as this can introduce bacteria and increase the risk of infection.

No Kissing or Lip Contact
Avoid kissing, as well as any other activities that involve direct contact with your lips (like oral activities), for at least a week to minimize the risk of infection and irritation.

Avoid Hot Foods and Drinks
For the first few days, avoid hot, spicy, or acidic foods and beverages, as these can irritate the treated area. Opt for cool or lukewarm foods and drinks until your lips have healed.

Sleep on Your Back
Sleep with your head elevated and avoid pressing your face into a pillow, as friction can disturb the healing process.

Stay Hydrated
Drink plenty of water throughout the healing process to keep your lips hydrated and assist in overall recovery.

What to expect

  • The lips may appear swollen and tender for the first 1–3 days, which is normal. Swelling usually subsides within a few days.

  • The tattooed color may appear darker initially and will gradually lighten and soften as the healing progresses. It may appear more vibrant and intense for the first 1-2 weeks before settling into the final shade after full healing.

  • As the tattoo heals, your lips may develop small scabs or flakes. This is normal, and it’s important to resist the temptation to peel or scratch them off.

  • Depending on the depth and type of tattoo, some people may need a follow-up session for touch-ups. This is usually scheduled 4–6 weeks after the initial treatment to ensure optimal results.
