Day 1
- Immediately following the procedure, lips will feel dry chapped, tight and tender to the touch. They may appear swollen and bring in color. For 4 hour after treatment apply light pressure on lips with clean paper towel, to remove any lymph. After 4 hours, start applying ointment (Aquaphor) as needed to keep lips constantly moist.
No kissing, rubbing or friction on treatment area.
Day 1-3
- Apply ointment on lips several times a day. Keep lips moist at all times. Avoid oily, spicy and heavily season food and drink with a straw. After every meal gently rinse and clean lips with water and pat dry, then re-apply ointment.
Day 4-7
- Between these days, lips will begin and end the process of peeling, and color will lighten by 30%-50%.
Do not pick or rub your lips and let the peeling happen naturally. Continue keeping your lips moist.
Week 2
- Lips are done peeling, color is light. You may return to normal routines. Lips will continue to heal, up to 6 weeks. Every week more color will resurface. It is important to continue keeping lips moist to get the best color at the end of the healing phase.
Week 6-8
Your lips are healed and you are feeling amazing! Just add some lip gloss and go! In most cases, it requires two treatments to complete the lip transformation.
