Here are some lip shapes that are often admired:

Avoid any facial treatments, particularly around your mouth and lips.
Protect your lips and face from sun and wind to prevent sunburn and chapping. Keep lips soft and healthy before your lip tattoo.

When considering cosmetic tattooing of the lips, it's important to be mindful of potential risks and side effects, especially in the sensitive lip area.
Keep these risks in mind:
Swelling - Cosmetic Tattoo needles create tiny skin injuries that trigger a natural response of swelling. Don't fret, though, as this swelling usually calms down within a few days.
Swelling bothering you? A cold pack can really help. The cold will reduce the inflammation.
Infections - An Infection after a lip tattoo can happen for various reasons. It's vital to have your tattoo artist use sterile equipment and needles. Following aftercare instructions, including using mouth rinse, is key.
Lips are prone to infections due to contact with saliva, food, and drinks, especially inner-lip tattoos due to moisture and bacteria in the mouth.
Scarring - Complications like scarring can result from ineffective healing of a lip tattoo, often triggered by allergic reactions or infections post-tattooing.
Allergic reactions - If you have a history of skin allergies or sensitivities, talk to Nanna about hypoallergenic ink as a precautionary measure to prevent possible allergic reactions like itchiness, rashes, or hives.
Anaphylaxis- In rare instances, a severe allergic reaction following a lip tattoo has been documented, with some individuals experiencing it shortly after the procedure. It is common for the lips to swell post-tattooing.
If swelling extends to the neck and cheeks, coupled with breathing difficulties, you should seek urgent medical help to address possible anaphylaxis, which can be life-threatening if left untreated.
Blood-borne illnesses - Using unsterilized needles poses a serious risk of transmitting blood-borne diseases like hepatitis B, hepatitis C, and HIV, make sure you use a reputable cosmetic artist like Nanna who can effectively demonstrate her hygiene practices.
While the majority of cosmetic lip tattoos side effects are mild, it is crucial to understand the risks so you can make informed decisions about your personal safety.
Choosing the right artist for your lip tattoo is crucial. Finding the right lip colour and making it last takes a pro. You need someone who really knows colour and what makes a lip stain stick.
Lifestyle habits such as sun exposure and smoking can really affect how your lip tattoo holds up over time. Make sure to keep these factors in mind to maintain the quality of your lip tattoo.
