First 24–48 Hours: Healing Begins

• Keep Lips Clean & Dry– No water, saliva, or moisture contact
• Blot Gently– Dab away any lymph fluid with a clean tissue
• Apply Technician-Approved Balm– Use Aquaphor, vitamin E, or coconut oil as recommended
• Avoid Kissing & Touching– Reduces risk of irritation and infection
• Skip Spicy, Salty & Acidic Foods– Stick to mild, soft foods
• Drink Through a Straw– Keep liquids away from the healing area

Days 3–7: Peeling & Scabbing Phase

• Do NOT Pick or Peel– Let scabs shed naturally to avoid pigment loss
• Keep Balm On– Hydrated lips = smooth, comfortable healing
• No Lipstick or Makeup Yet– Wait until fully healed before applying cosmetics
• Avoid Direct Sunlight– UV rays can cause fading and irritation

Days 7–14: Final Healing Phase 

• Moisturize Regularly– Use fragrance-free lip balm to keep lips soft
• Avoid Harsh Skincare Products– No acids or exfoliants near your lips
• Expect Color Fading– Initial shade may lighten before settling

Long-Term Lip Love

• Touch-Up in 6–8 Weeks– Perfects shape and color retention
• Use SPF Lip Balm– Prevents premature fading from sun exposure
• Stay Hydrated– Healthy skin starts from within
