Lip Contour Treatments

Beauty is power , a smile is its sword - John Ray

If you want to turn up the volume of your overall attractiveness, pay more attention to your lips!

There are different options for permanent lip colour, the first is a lip line or lip contour. This is a soft lip line using colours carefully chosen to blend into the natural lip colour, resulting in a flawless but effective lip contour definition, completely unlike the strong coloured lip lines of old. The second is a lip line and blush, where a slightly stronger colour may be used to define the lips border, the colour is then blended and feathered halfway through the lip, creating the illusion of more volume and fullness. The third option is full lip colour, again clever use of colours and shading will give the same results as previously mentioned, but the overall effect is for someone more used to seeing a bit more colour. Lip gloss or balm will always further enhance and lift the colour, looking like a tinted lip gloss - very much today’s look.

The essence of beautiful lips is down to definition, colour and volume. Aspects which every woman desires but few are lucky enough to have. Lip treatments are a great secret weapon in anti ageing the lips and creating aesthetic beauty. Firstly as we age the lips start to lose their border and natural colour, almost blending into the face, which can in turn drain the complexion. Permanent makeup gives us the opportunity to re create that definition and replace their youthful colour. A well defined lip edge will also detract from age lines around the lips, and minimise lipstick bleed that collects in them,(on any occasion you may still chose to use lipstick that is!).Secondly, skilfully applied permanent lip colour, utilising small, crisp and precise adjustments in shape can create balance and symmetry where needed. To finish off, lip curves can be made to appear more sensuous, adjustments can be made to the balance between the upper and lower lip, scars camouflaged, and the lips can even be given a subtle upturn.

General Questions and Fears regarding permanent lip tattoo

I have seen lip lines done before..they look so dark and unflattering
Styles have changed considerably and this look is most definitely no longer in vogue. Techniques, the range of pigment colours available, and indeed the equipment now used, allow much more flexibility, with colours and density tailored to suit the individual.

The lips are so sensitive, is a lip treatment very painful?
Topical anaesthetics are used during all procedures. Most people find the pain is completely eliminated with only an occasional nippy sensation. However once the procedure is completed and the aesthetic has worn off, the lips will feel a little sore for the rest of the day, a couple of paracetamol is normally sufficient to sort this out.

I suffer with cold sores, will I still be able to have a permanent lip colour?
If you are prone to cold sores, a lip treatment will almost certainly cause an outbreak, however there are measures that can be taken to avoid this happening. You must advise your technician if you have the virus, and they will advise as to the best course of action.

Will I have to hide away for a few days following treatment?
Immediately after treatment, the lips may be slightly swollen. They will certainly feel more swollen than they actually look, a bit like when you’ve been to the dentist. This usually settles down within an hour or so. The initial colour will also be very intense, in comparison to the colour it will fade to over the course of a few days.
