GLOW ELITE PMU

Lip Blush & Neutralization

AFTERCARE

Expected Healing

Your lips will be swollen, tender, and bold like lipstick at first.
Swelling usually settles within about 1–2 days — this is an estimate, and timing varies from person to person.
The color fades and softens as you heal — how much varies from person to person.
A thin scab forms and flakes off in 3–5 days.
Mild swelling, redness, tenderness, flaking, or itching can occur during the first days of healing (1–10 days), and should gradually ease as you heal.
Full healing takes 5–6 weeks for the true color to appear.

Apply a rice-sized amount of the PMU ointment I provide, 2–3 times daily, for at least 7 days.
Use clean fingertips or a Q-tip, and blot any excess.
The ointment I provide is the one exception to the lip-product restriction — keep using it as directed while other lip products stay off.

Apply ice packs for 10 minutes, hourly, for the first 4–8 hours.
Ice is not helpful after 24 hours.
Avoid spicy foods.
Do not stretch your mouth very wide.
Use a straw.
Keep food from touching your lips.
Let scabs flake off naturally — picking can cause pigment loss or scarring, especially around the lip line.

Direct sun or tanning beds.
Skincare, cosmetics, or lip products, especially exfoliants or acids (30 days).
Facials, microdermabrasion, microneedling, peels, or laser (4 weeks).
Lip fillers (4–6 weeks).
Do not sleep on your face (10 days).
Use a clean pillowcase during the first 10 days.
Blistex, Carmex, or Chapstick (too thick).
Excessive alcohol (it slows healing).
Heavy household cleaning with airborne debris.

Lip Blush and Neutralization follow the same aftercare and the same healing timeline.
Results may appear lighter or uneven as your skin renews — this is normal.

Seek prompt medical care for: redness that keeps spreading, pain or swelling that increases, pus or discharge, or fever. These can be signs of infection.
