TREATMENTS — ORGANISED BY CONCERN
Most clients come to us describing what they see: pale lips, a border that fades, darker pigmentation or a previous tattoo that didn’t heal the way they hoped. Below, each concern leads to the cosmetic lip tattooing treatment most often discussed for it at our Melbourne studio. Your consultation then decides what actually suits you.
LIP BORDER — CLOSE VIEW
BEFORE YOU CHOOSE — A SHORT CHECKLIST
01 — Name the concern. Pale, uneven, undefined or unwanted colour. Your own words are the best starting point.
02 — Mention any previous lip tattoo. Earlier pigment changes which options are suitable.
03 — Share relevant health information. Lip tattooing is a skin-penetration procedure, so we talk through suitability and risks before any treatment.
04 — Expect a change after treatment. Fresh pigment often looks brighter or darker; the healed colour develops gradually. Read why.
05 — Allow for another session. Results vary between individuals, and some treatments need additional sessions.
CONCERN — PALE LIPS
Lips that look washed out, uneven in tone or lacking colour without lipstick.
01 — PRIORITY TREATMENT
Personalised lip pigmentation that enhances your natural lip colour and definition for a soft, balanced appearance. We choose the pigment for your tone and features rather than applying a set shade.
LIMITATION — HEALED COLOUR VARIES; A TOUCH-UP MAY BE NEEDED
ALSO FOR COLOUR
A soft, watercolour-style wash of colour. Results and healing differ from person to person.
Graduated colour across the lip. How the gradient settles can’t be predicted exactly.
A fuller, lipstick-style colour if you’d like to rely less on daily lipstick. Pigment retention can’t be guaranteed.
CONCERN — UNDEFINED BORDER
Liner and contour tattooing to define a border that has softened or faded, following your natural shape.
LIMITATION — DEFINITION SOFTENS AS IT HEALS
CONCERN — DARK PIGMENTATION
A specialist approach for dark or uneven lip tones, using carefully selected pigment to balance colour.
LIMITATION — NOT A MEDICAL TREATMENT; CORRECTION ISN’T GUARANTEED
CONCERN — UNWANTED COLOUR
Colour correction for a previous lip tattoo that healed too warm, too cool or uneven.
LIMITATION — MORE THAN ONE SESSION MAY BE NEEDED
CONCERN — UNWANTED COLOUR
Reducing unwanted lip tattoo pigment when correcting the colour isn’t the right path.
LIMITATION — COMPLETE REMOVAL AND SESSION NUMBERS CAN’T BE PROMISED
SCOPE — COSMETIC LIP TATTOOING ONLY
We don’t provide lip fillers, injectable treatments, surgical lip augmentation or medical treatment for lip conditions. If you’re considering any of these, please speak with an appropriately qualified healthcare professional.
BEFORE TREATMENT — SUITABILITY & HEALING
Every treatment on this page is a skin-penetration procedure. Before we begin, we go through suitability, possible risks and the health and safety information required under Victorian public health regulations, and we follow infection control throughout. Afterwards, healing and pigment retention vary from person to person.
