♡ Wash the treated area 2x a day with a rice grain amount of gentle cleanser. Using your fingertips go in a gentle circular motion, be sure not to disrupt the natural scabbing process. Continue to cleanse 2x daily for at least 6 weeks.

♡ Apply aftercare gel every 2 hours. This will help the lips heal better plus help with dryness.

♡ Blot the lip area. Clear lymph fluid is normal for 1-3 days after a procedure. Gently, blot the area on regular basis until the lips begin to peel (2-3 days after the procedure.)

♡ Do not pick or peel. Allow the scabs that form over the treated area to fall off naturally. Picking will cause the color to heal uneven.

♡ Drink through a straw and use eating utensils for the first few days after the procedure to refrain from food and drinks getting on the lips.

♡ Avoid spicy & oily foods until the lips are done peeling.

♡ Do not wear lipstick or lip gloss on the treated area, as much as this is tempting in the peeling/scabbing phase due to them being splotchy, it can affect the healing of your new lips.

♡ Avoid sleeping directly on your face/lips at night.

♡ Avoid physical activities that cause excessive sweating. This includes long, hot showers & exercising! Sweat can push the pigment out and can cause fading.

♡ Avoid situations where your lips will be exposed to dust and dirt. Keep the lip area clean at all times!

♡ Avoid sun exposure and tanning. This can cause the lips to fade and even discolor!

♡ Avoid having facial treatments/botox/filler in the treated area until lips have healed.

♡ Avoid putting retinoid creams, AHA, BHA, and other exfoliating products on the treated area. These will cause the lips to become irritated and heal uneven.
