An initial appointment typically lasts 2 to 3 hours, including color consultation, mapping, numbing, the pigment application, and aftercare review. Timing varies by client and complexity; please arrive with any medical history and plan for a relaxed session.

Lip blush can last up to three years, though longevity varies with skin type, sun exposure, and lifestyle. Fading is natural; most clients schedule a color-refresh 12–24 months after the initial procedure to maintain optimal tone and definition.

Yes. Avoid aspirin, NSAIDs, alcohol, and blood-thinning supplements 48–72 hours prior. Skip lip exfoliation, waxing, or tanning the week before. If prone to cold sores, take antiviral medication as advised. Disclose medications, pregnancy, and allergies during consult.

It's best to avoid lipstick and colored products until your lips have healed, typically 7–14 days. Use prescribed balm only. After full healing and final touch-up, you can apply makeup as usual; wait for any scabbing to fall off completely.
