If You Have a History of Cold Sores
If you have a history of cold sores (even if you have only had one or have not had one in a long time), please consult with a physician before booking your appointment. There is a risk of a cold sore flare-up after your lip blush procedure.

Avoid facials, tanning, strong skincare products, and Botox/filler treatments.

1 Week Before Your Appointment
Keep your lips as moisturized as possible. Apply lip balm throughout the day and before you sleep.

Until Your Lips Are Done Peeling
Avoid direct sunlight, makeup and skincare products on the lips, scratching your lips, and picking at your scabs. Do not eat any oily or spicy foods. Only drink through a straw. Keep the lips as moisturized as possible by applying A&D or Aquaphor ointment every 30 minutes. Do not apply any other products on the lips. Make sure to always wash your hands before touching the lips during the healing process.

On the Day of Your Appointment
Blot any excess lymph fluid off the lips with a clean tissue.
