Are There Risks With Lip Colour Removal?

Like any treatment, lip colour removal comes with a few considerations. Here’s what you might hear about—and what it really means:

✅ Temporary Swelling or Sensitivity

This is normal and usually fades within a day or two. It’s your body’s natural response to the skin being gently worked on.

✅ Mild Flaking or Peeling

As the pigment begins to lift, some light flaking can occur. This is part of the healing process—not a reaction.

✅ Uneven Fading (Temporarily)

During the healing phase, pigment may appear patchy before it settles into a more even tone. We’ll explain what to expect and how to support the process at home.

But here’s the key: when performed correctly by a trained professional, lip colour removal is extremely low-risk and very well tolerated—even for sensitive skin.

💡 Curious About the Options?

If you're just starting your journey and want to explore what’s available, these are our three most popular services:

Lip Colour Removal: A gentle, non-laser technique designed to lift and lighten unwanted pigment naturally.
Lip Embroidery Enhancement: Perfect for rebuilding tone, hydration, and balance after pigment is corrected.
Lip Blush: A soft finishing tint that gives lips a subtle pink glow once they’re ready.

We’ll help you figure out which step is right—without pressure.
