What Is The Process? Step 1: The Consultation

During your consultation we will discuss your makeup routine, what colors your enjoy wearing and the color you want to achieve with your Lip Blushing. We will discuss the lip symmetry and any recommendations we have for you.

Step 2: The Outline

Once we have discussed all of your options and chosen the perfect color, we’ll outline your lips. This is important and carefully drawn on to ensure perfect symmetry, as well as a shape that complements the natural highlights and contours of your face.

Step 3: The Numbing

Before we begin your procedures we will numb your lips with a topical anesthetic. The numbing part takes about 20 minutes to minimize discomfort as much as possible. We’ll most likely add numbing cream halfway through your procedure as well to make sure you are as comfortable and pain free as possible.

Step 4: The Procedure

Now that we have picked your color, lined your lips and let the numbing cream kick in, we will begin applying lip color. Lip color is applied very carefully with a sterile, medical grade applicator designed specifically for detailed cosmetic application. (All items that touch your skin are one time use only and are disposed of after the treatment.) We apply lip color to the outline first then the entire lip surface. This can take 1-2.5 hours.

Step 5: The New Lips

After your treatment is complete, we’ll reveal your new & beautiful full lip color that you will enjoy every day without worrying about your lips ever again. To ensure you have perfection, we will schedule you for a touch up after 30-60 days of your first procedure

What To Expect After Your Lip Procedure

Day 1:​ Your color will appear bright and saturated. Your lips will also feel slightly swollen. That is normal.

Days 2-4:​ Your color will begin to darken a bit but temporarily as the pigment oxidizes and flaking begins. Your lips will feel most swollen during this time, but it should reduce quickly with proper after care.

Days 5-15:​ Most of the swelling will be gone and your lips will begin to feel dry and flaky. It is important that you DO NOT pick at your lips and allow shedding to heal naturally. Also during this time, your lip color may appear very light but don’t worry, this is normal & only temporary as the new skin is still in the healing phase. Over the next few days your lip color will reappear until it reaches 40-50% of the initial color.

Days 28-42: ​It’s time for you to come back for your touch up! Your lips are fully healed at this point but we recommend that you come back in to reinforce any color that might have healed patchy or too light. And for us to make sure your lips are absolutely perfect.

*NOTE: Once fully healed, remember to always apply full spectrum sunscreen to your lips when in the sun to avoid premature fading of treatment. The sun is not your lips friend so please apply a lipstick or chapstick with spf.

*A complete Lip healing cycle takes 4-6 weeks depending on age and your body.

Microblading is done in two sessions. The first takes about two hours. In the first session, the brow is shaped and styled to the client’s preference, and pigment is applied.. Four to six weeks later, the client returns for the second session for a touch up.

Touch up is necessary because everyones skin heals differently, so retention of pigment varies. In the touch up session, the final adjustments in color and shape are made to assure the client’s satisfaction..

Generally microblading can last up to 12/18 months depending on skin type and general skin care of the client. To maintain the brows an annual touch up is recommended.

The level of discomfort is relatively minor, certainly less painful than traditional tattooing on account of the numbing cream. Some liken it to tweezing two to three hairs at the same time. Redness and slight swelling in the area is common after the procedure.

Generally microblading can last up to 12/18 months depending on skin type and general skin care of the client. To maintain the brows an annual touch up is recommended.

Prior to the start of your session, avoid alcohol, aspirin or ibuprofen for 48 hours. Sometimes these have the effect of thinning your blood.

If you use accutane, or are allergic to lidocaine, tetracaine, or epinephrine, if you are pregnant or nursing or on blood thinning medications, if you have a skin disease or inflammation then microblading is not recommended.

If you plan to get BOTOX, or a chemical peel please allow 3 weeks in between the microblading treatment.
