​

How long does it take to heal?

There are two stages in the healing process. The first process is the skin peeling and flaking. This lasts anywhere between 3-7 days. It's going to get really chappy, but just trust the process.  The second stage is when the skin's natural cell turnover takes place in the next couple weeks. The pigment may appear light, and translucent. As the skin heals, the color will bloom back to the surface. It won't look like how they were when they were freshly done though. So please keep this in mind when choosing your goal color. That's why it's recommended to do a strong color since they fade a lot. They're fully healed at 6 weeks.

​

Healing Process

Day 1 - 4: Color may appear bold and look like a liquid lipstick.

Day 3-7: You will notice the skin healing and your lips getting pretty chapped. The areas that peel may appear lighter in color than the rest. 

Day 3-7: All or majority of the skin may have healed over and appear very light. 

Day 14: You may use lip-gloss or lipstick again.

Day 21 - 35: You will notice the color regenerating and your brows looking nice and more filled in. 

Month 1 1/2 - 3: The final color will settle in. If you’d like another session, the skin is ready to take it on.
