You must be 18 or over and not pregnant or breastfeeding. I will go through your medical history with you before any treatment to ensure there are no contraindications.
Lip tattooing can last anything from 1 year to 10 years. Keep this in consideration when choosing your colour. A bright colour may look great now but may not be suitable in years to come as the skin ages.
Lip blushing usually requires a retouch every couple of years to keep it looking fresh.
Cosmetic tattooing is a process, not an exact science and I cannot guarantee you an exact colour result. Colours heal differently in everyone, lighter colours fade faster than darker colours, and all colours will change with time.
Yes you do!
Cosmetic tattooing is always a two part process. If you don’t have this top up within the advised timescale the colour will disappear quickly. Tattooing with one session is not finished and you will not have a great result.
No lip makeup for a week, no swimming and no sweaty exercise. Full aftercare instructions will be given at the time of the treatment.
