Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Color Boost PMU - Lips.

Most color boost sessions last 45 to 75 minutes, including consultation, color matching, numbing, and application. Time varies based on lip condition and desired intensity. We'll review healing expectations and aftercare before you leave to optimize results and longevity.

No — the boost is designed to refresh and deepen your existing pigment while preserving your preferred shade. We color-match during consultation and make conservative adjustments to maintain the look you love, only intensifying where fading has occurred.

Frequency depends on lifestyle, skin type, and sun exposure, but most clients return every 12 to 24 months. Oily skin or heavy sun exposure may need more frequent boosts; we'll recommend a personalized schedule during your appointment.

Discomfort is minimal; we use topical numbing and gentle techniques to keep you comfortable. Most clients feel pressure or mild tingling during application. Post-procedure sensitivity fades quickly and is managed with recommended aftercare and soothing ointments.

Keep lips clean and moisturized, avoid picking, and skip makeup, swimming, saunas, and intense exercise for one week. Use SPF after healing to protect color. We'll provide a detailed aftercare sheet and recommended products to support optimal pigment retention.

Most clients with healed, stable lip PMU are candidates, but we evaluate pigment condition, scarring, and allergy history. Fresh or infected work must fully heal before boosting. A consultation ensures safe treatment and confirms the best approach for your lips.
