Question 1

Does the Lip Blush procedure hurt?

Accepted Answer

Most clients find the procedure very tolerable. We apply a medical-grade topical numbing cream before and during the treatment to minimize discomfort. You may feel a light scratching or buzzing sensation, but it’s usually mild. Some clients even fall asleep during the session! Sensitivity can vary depending on your pain threshold and the time of your menstrual cycle.

Question 2

What will my lips look like after the procedure?

Accepted Answer

Immediately after the treatment, your lips will appear brighter and more intense in colour, this is normal. Minor swelling and tenderness are also common but usually subside within 24–48 hours. Over the next few days, the color will fade and soften by 30–50% as your lips heal, leaving a more natural, blushed finish. Full healing typically takes 7–10 days, with full colour results visible in about 8-10 weeks.

Question 3

How long does Lip Blush last?

Accepted Answer

Lip Blush typically lasts 3-5 years, depending on your skin type, lifestyle, and skincare routine. Factors like sun exposure, smoking, and certain ingredients in skincare (like retinols or acids) can affect longevity. A touch-up session is recommended at 8-12 weeks after the initial treatment to perfect the colour and shape (this touch up session is complimentary!) After that, colour refreshers can be done every 12–24 months as needed.

Question 4

Who is a good candidate for Lip Blush?

Accepted Answer

Most people are great candidates! Lip Blush is ideal for those who:  Have pale, uneven, or fading lip color  Want to define their lip shape and add fullness  Prefer a low-maintenance alternative to daily lipstick  Have healed from previous lip filler and want to enhance the results  However, certain medical conditions, medications, or cold sore history may require special precautions. If you’ve had cold sores in the past, we recommend taking an antiviral medication before your appointment to prevent outbreaks.

Question 5

How should I prepare for my Lip Blush appointment?

Accepted Answer

Preparation is key for optimal results. Here's what to do before your appointment:  Avoid alcohol, caffeine, and blood thinners 24 hours before  Avoid lip injections for at least 3–4 weeks before treatment  Exfoliate and hydrate your lips leading up to your appointment  If you’re prone to cold sores, take your prescribed antiviral 1–2 days prior  For a complete list of pre-care and aftercare instructions, visit our Pre-Care and After-Care Instructions page.
