A.
First, we will talk about your expectations.
The procedure and the results.
Is it possible to have a natural looking permanent lip color?
Yes. The full lip permanent makeup yields the most natural results. At LADY BROWS MIA we like to preserve the natural look.
Who is the best candidate for permanent lip color?
The best candidates for permanent lip color are individuals with naturally faint lip color, individuals with scars or discoloration around the lips, individuals with uneven lips, those who simply want to save time.

Lip blush is a permanent makeup technique designed to enhance the lips color, shape and symmetry while creating the appearance of fuller lips.
We can even redesign the outline of the lips, in order to create a more desirable look. 40 days after the procedure, touch-ups are performed, leaving you with full, gorgeous lips. Clients can come to one touch-up, or two, depending on how gradually they prefer to build the color.
During the procedure, topical anesthetics are applied to the lips to minimize any discomfort you may feel. After the procedure, sometimes slight puffiness will be apparent for the first twenty-four hours. The applied color is likely to appear approximately thirty percent darker immediately after its application, but will achieve its permanent color after a few weeks. During this interval, it’s normal for your lips to feel somewhat dry or chapped, so we strongly advise you to frequently apply moisturizing lip balm.
- Do not work out the day of the procedure.
- Do not tan or have sunburned face.
- Do not take Aspirin, Niacin, Vitamin E, Fish Oil or Ibuprofen 24 hours before procedure.
- No alcohol or caffeine 2 days before the procedure.
- Hydrate your lips 2 days before your appointment.
- Lips must be in perfect conditions
- If you tend to get blisters (Herpes) with frequency please ask your doctor for antiviral medication to avoid activating the virus.

Antacids, thyroid and anxiety medications have been reported as interfering with permanent makeup either by affecting retention or shifting the pigment to an undesirable tone. Remember, everything we eat and drink have their own chemical structure and the electron ends that are unattached or free, may get attached to others compounds inside the body forming a new molecule that may show a different color spectrum. With that info, an educated client may have better expectation and know that she / he may need more frequent adjustments that others. The better condition your skin is in, the better the final result will be. Mature clients may need an additional one to two weeks healing for the final results to appear. The better you take care of your skin and protect it from UV rays, the better the outcome and lifespan of the permanent cosmetic procedures.
During the first day
- It is very important to remove the lymph from the surface of the skin in order to avoid heavy scabbing. Right after the procedure clean the lips with a damp cotton (using clean bottled water) every 30 min until bedtime. Before sleep, if the lips still got some dry lymph then wash with lukewarm water gently removing the dry lymph, pat dry and apply Aquaphor Healing Ointment (you can find it in any grocery store, kids section).
- Sometimes the lips can bruise even after the procedure, do not worry, the bruising will go away within couple hours after the procedure.
- Wait one hour after the procedure to eat and/or dink.

On the first session we will have to neutralize to cancel out the cool tones. This means the initial color we use MUST be in the orange range! When healed at 6 weeks, most if not all, of the darkness in your lips will be covered and your lips will have a more even tone. Note that results cannot be guaranteed and lightening or evening out dark lips may take a few sessions. Under no circumstances will we tattoo a “NUDE” color on dark or cool toned lips. If you are unsure if you have dark or cool toned lips you can send your technician a picture of your lips in natural light to confirm. Lady has perfected her own innovative, natural lip blush technique to create a beautiful lip tint on your pout while keeping pain and discomfort to a minimum.
