THINKING OF BOOKING A FINE LINE TATTOO ✨

Fine line tattoos are delicate, minimal and timeless - but there are a few things to consider before booking your appointment 🤍

A good tattoo isn’t just about how it looks on day one —it’s about how it will continue to look as it heals and ages ✨

Thinking about getting a lip blush tattoo? 👄✨

We know one of the biggest questions people have is “What does the healing process actually look like?”

So our lovely client Somaya documented her entire journey from start to finish. 💖

Every person’s healing journey is unique, but we hope this gives you a realistic insight into what you can expect.

One thing Somaya included was her cold sore breakout during healing.
As discussed during her consultation, lip tattooing can trigger a cold sore outbreak in people who carry the herpes simplex virus (HSV), even if they haven’t had one in a long time. This is a known risk due to the trauma to the lips during the procedure.

For this reason, we recommend that anyone with a history of cold sores speaks with their GP or pharmacist before their appointment about whether preventative antiviral medication is appropriate for them.

Thankfully, Somaya’s healing continued as expected, and you can see her beautiful fully healed result at the end of the carousel. 🤍

If you’ve been thinking about lip blush but still have questions, our inbox is always open, we’re more than happy to help. 👄
