During Your Lip Procedure

Personal Consultation (10 minutes)

Welcome, relax, and let’s get to know each other. We’ll talk through how natural or bold you’d like your lips to look, explore different styles, and share our expert recommendations. You’ll see swatches of pigments to compare, so you can choose the perfect shade for your unique skin tone and style.

Numbing & Preparation (20 minutes) 

We’ll apply a generous layer of numbing cream to your lips for maximum comfort.

While it takes effect, you can sit back and unwind—we’ll be mixing and matching pigments behind the scenes to find your ideal color blend.

Shape Mapping (10-15 minutes)

With your lips fully numb, we’ll draw and refine your new lip outline using a soft pencil. We’ll tweak it together—because perfection is in the details—until you feel completely confident in the shape.

Pigment Implantation (90 minutes – 120 minutes)

Once you approve the design, we’ll begin the micro pigmentation process. Feel free to listen to your favourite podcast or music—and if you need a moment’s break, just let us know! This two‑hour window is all about your comfort and enjoyment.

AFTER your procedure

Day 1

DO moisturize your lips at any time for the next 5 days with the lip moisturizer we’ve given you.

Day 2-5

DO drink through a straw.
DO sleep on your back to avoid touching your lips to your pillow or other surfaces
DON’T touch your lips with uncleaned fingers
DON’T apply make-up, or harsh chemicals like cleansers or creams to the treated areas
