Lip artistry
Lip neutralization is a specialized cosmetic pigmentation technique used for selected darker or uneven lip tones. You may need 2–4 sessions. Treatment planning and the healed appearance vary.
Neutralization uses carefully selected cosmetic pigments and technique to address the appearance of certain natural lip pigment differences. It is not a promise that every lip tone can or should be made pink, and more than one stage may be planned.
Lip blush is generally a color-enhancement technique. Neutralization pays additional attention to the lip's existing pigmentation and how colors may behave during healing. A consultation helps decide which fits your goals.
Darker natural lip tones are normal. Wanting to change their appearance is a cosmetic preference, not a condition that needs treatment. We will talk through the look you want and the limits of cosmetic pigments.
The process
Talk through your natural lip tone, goals and any health considerations.
We map the shape and test pigment options against your skin.
Numbing, then careful layering of pigment over about three hours.
Colour looks bolder at first, then softens over 4 to 6 weeks.
A follow-up at 6 to 8 weeks refines colour and evens any light spots.
