What is Lip Blushing?
Micropigmentation, also known as lip blushing, permanent makeup or lip tattooing, is a cosmetic procedure used to improve or replace lost colouring on your skin. In order to improve the overall look, colour ink is superficially injected into your lips and along your lip line.
To get results that look natural, the colour is toned. The micropigmentation procedure is most often done on your lips.

Bodycraft's Lip Blushing Process
• Electrolysis should not be done for a week before the procedure
• If you have had any type of lip surgery, discuss it with your doctor.
• Do not consume any antibiotics, blood thinners, steroids and antacid drugs prior to the treatment.
• If you are prone to dry skin on your lips, make sure your lips are hydrated and soft before the procedure.
• Avoid alcoholic drinks for at least 24 hours prior.
• A topical anaesthetic will be applied to numb the area and keep you comfortable throughout the treatment.
• A pen-like instrument or a typical tattoo gun is used for the procedure.
• The needle will penetrate a few millimetres into the layer of your skin and an iron oxide pigment is injected.
• The doctor will give you an antiseptic to keep the treated area clean after the procedure.
• If necessary, you can apply ice to your swollen lips.
• Your lips will begin to recover during the following week, which means they might scab.
• It's crucial that the scabs heal naturally.
• Avoid picking them as doing so may cause scarring or pigment loss in the treated area.
• Avoid workouts and sun exposure for two weeks.
• Take a month off from getting any lip injections.
• Avoid sleeping or applying any pressure on your face.
• To ensure that the lips are properly hydrated, make sure to adhere to your doctor's instructions.
Side Effects & Precautions for Lip Blushing
Infection and allergic reactions are possible. The lip tattoo treatment usually causes mild side effects such as swelling, redness, or soreness. As the skin heals, there will be some peeling, just like with a normal tattoo. This is a natural part of the skin’s regenerating process and is perfectly normal.
This treatment is not recommended for pregnant and breastfeeding women.

FAQs for the Lip Blush Treatment
Lip blushing can typically last for several years, but how well it retains depends on your lifestyle choices. Smoking and sun exposure can hasten the fading process, and if you are iron deficient or frequently use exfoliating products in your skincare routine, the pigment may also fade more quickly.
The lip tattoo /blushing treatment does not actually make your lips larger. However, similar to makeup, lip blushing gives the impression that the lips are fuller. It creates a plumper or more defined appearance.
Some patients might need more than one session to get the desired result. Make sure you are entirely aware of the precise number of treatments required. You might also need additional procedures to maintain the appearance as the pigment fades over time.
Lip fillers use needles to inject fluid into your lips, whereas lip blushing merely uses needles to inject pigment into the lips’ skin. Since their processes differ from each other, it makes sense for their final looks to also be different. You will have plumper and bigger lips if you use lip fillers. Whereas, your lips will have significantly more colour than they had in the past thanks to micropigmentation.
Lip coloring can be a slightly stressful process, but everyone’s experience varies. A numbing cream is applied before and during the procedure to make it smoother and more comfortable.
