Did you know that your lips are as individual as your fingerprints? That’s right! If you were to blot your lips on a tissue; each print would be an original masterpiece, showcasing your uniqueness. However, your lips generally feature only three to five shades, from a soft reddish pink to deeper brown tones. This is because the blood arteries are located close to the outer layer of the skin and are only a few layers thick. Melanin makes up our skin colour, consequently, people who have more melanin in their skin look darker. Lips will appear paler, and your blood vessels will be more visible if your skin is lighter. So, what about those individuals with deeper skin tones or darker lips resulting from ageing, hyperpigmentation, or underlying medical conditions? Here’s where Lip Neutralisation Treatment plays a crucial role.
What is Lip Neutralisation?
Lip Neutralisation, Dark Lip Colour Correction or Lip Lightening is a cosmetic tattooing technique tailored to individuals with cool or naturally dark-toned lip pigmentation. The dark lips treatment involves using advanced colour theory and carefully injecting neutralising pigments into the lip region. This lightens the lips’ natural colour or makes dark spots and different tones in your lip tissue look less noticeable. In other words, it complements deeper shades while enhancing the natural lip hue, or undertones, contour, and symmetry. Above all, it offers a long-lasting uniform appearance of the lips emphasising a natural look rather than an intense bold colour. Lip neutralisation treatment is ideal for all clients, regardless of gender. Interestingly, men share the same enthusiasm for the concept as women do.
The Lip Neutralisation Treatment Process
- During the initial consultation, a skilled cosmetic tattooist will evaluate your lips and their overall condition. They will also address any allergies, medical conditions, or medications that may impact the procedure or the healing process. They will also discuss your desired outcome. and we will provide answers to any other questions you may have.
- Once the consultation is over, the procedure will begin. A numbing cream is applied to reduce any discomfort. The tattooist will then deposit pigment into the lips with a fine needle, allowing for a gradual build-up of colour and coverage as required. He/She will utilise a variety of colours and shades of pigment to attain the desired outcome focusing on creating a natural-looking effect that enhances your skin tone and facial features.
Dark Lip Correction Aftercare
Following the procedure, it is essential to adhere to the aftercare instructions. This may involve refraining from specific foods, beverages, and activities that could aggravate the lips or disrupt the healing process. Cosmetic Tattoo Clinic Manchester recommends applying our Tattoo Aftercare Cream A&D Fougera Vitamin Ointment to the lips to maintain moisture and prevent scabbing or peeling.
Benefits of Lip Lightening
- Improved aesthetic appeal: Neutralising the lips can perfect your overall facial appearance by creating a balanced and symmetric lip shape. In the same way, by resolving any unevenness, you will develop a flawless smile that emphasises your distinctive facial features.
- Boosted self-assurance: Many people are insecure about their lips because they aren’t perfectly round or proportional. By improving your overall self-image, dark lip neutralisation can make you feel more comfortable and at ease in social situations.
- Completely natural-looking: Lip correction is designed to bring out your best features. The neutralising treatment will highlight your natural beauty instead of making you look artificial or overdone.
- Minimal recovery time: Many individuals can return to their daily activities straight after their micropigmentation procedure. This provides a practical solution for those with demanding schedules.
