Topical numbing is applied to minimize discomfort; most clients report mild pressure or tingling rather than pain. Sensitivity varies—menstruation, caffeine, or low pain tolerance can increase discomfort. We provide aftercare to ease healing and sensitivity.

Avoid blood-thinning medications, alcohol, and heavy exercise 24–48 hours before your appointment. Treat active cold sores and postpone if lip fillers were recent. Bring reference photos; we'll consult to select flattering, customized pigment shades during your session.

Yes—shade selection is collaborative. We evaluate your skin tone, natural lip pigment, and desired intensity to create a custom color. We recommend conservative initial tinting with a follow-up for adjustments after healing to ensure satisfaction.

Risks are low with licensed technicians but include infection, allergic reaction, uneven pigment, and temporary swelling. A patch test, strict hygiene, and following aftercare greatly reduce complications. Inform us of medical conditions or allergies before treatment.
