MICROPIGMENTATION FOR
DARK LIPS
SKIN TONES FITZPATRICK #4 +
Dark lips (Skin tone #4 or higher on the Fitzpatrick Scale) can experience irreversible hyperpigmentation/ scarring from the Lip Micropigmentation service. If your skin heals dark after an injury, your lips will also heal dark(er) after micropigmentation. To avoid this, clients with dark lips require an initial "neutralizing" lip micropigmentation session to be completed before the target/ desired color session can take place.
During the neutralization session, special pigments (yellow or orange, for example) designed to block dark color are implanted very gently and superficially into the dark areas of the lips. The target/ desired lip color is then applied 8 weeks later, once the lips have healed to a lighter, neutralized color. The Lip Micropigmentation process for dark lips can sometimes be completed within the time frame of 8 weeks, with the initial session used for neutralizing, and the 8 week "Perfecting Visit"/ touchup used to apply the target color. However, many clients may need to purchase one or more additional lip micropigmentation sessions in order to safely achieve the desired end result. Whether or not a client will need to purchase additional sessions cannot be determined until we can assess the healed results of the previous session(s).
