Lip Blush Aftercare
You did it! Congratulations on your beautiful lips.
Swelling is normal after the procedure. After you leave, we recommend that ice packs be applied for 10-15 minutes each hour for the first 48-hours following the procedure.
Cleansing the First two Days:
During those first 48-hours, the treated area can ONLY be cleansed with the antiseptic wipes provided to you. No water or other cleansers of any kind can be used for any reason.
IMPORTANT
It is normal to be excited about your new lips; however do not touch, pick, peel, tamper, scratch, rub, injure or remove the peeling in any way, you will damage the color and affect the retention. Let the skin naturally go through the healing and recovery process by applying only the moisturizer provided.
A very thin layer of the provided ointment should be applied consistently throughout the day to the treatment area using a fresh Q-tip (do NOT use mineral oil or chapstick brand.) Applying too much ointment can lead to fading, so a thin layer goes a long way. This will keep the area moist and accelerate the healing process. Do not let the area dry out and crack, keep it moist at all times. Do not press or rub aggressively when applying ointment.
