SCROLL DOWN
Cleft lip micropigmentation is a semi-permanent lip tattoo for adults who have had cleft lip surgery. Pigment matched to your natural lip colour redefines the lip line, rebuilds the shape of the cupid's bow and evens out the two sides of the mouth. It can also soften the look of the scar between your nose and lip.
If the scar feels tight or pulls the lip up, we can first use digital needling, a technique that triggers the skin's natural healing response to help the scar tissue soften and relax.
For women, it means no more drawing the lip line on every morning. For men, we can define the lip subtly and add a stubble effect over the scar if you want one.
A session takes 1.5 to 2 hours, and a tune-up is included. All treatments take place at our clinic in Chiswick, W4. To talk it through, call us on 020 8995 2200 or use our contact page.
First we’ll decide if digital-needling will benefit you. Next we’ll look at your desired lip shape and colour and pre-draw your enhancement using conventional cosmetics.
This ensures exactly the right colours and lip design are chosen for you and the finished result is precisely what you want. You can book a consultation by visiting our contact page.
Your appointment lasts 1.5 to 2 hours, including the time to draw and agree on your lip design. A tune-up session is included.
If your scar needs it, we start with digital needling, passing a fine electronic device over the scar to help release tension. We then tattoo colour into the lip, following the design you agreed.
Our clients find it manageable. We apply numbing cream first, and we check in with you throughout to ensure you're comfortable during the process.
All our technicians are experts in their field of medical micropigmentation. They’ve also all been trained with us on our courses, which are recognised by special treatments licensing as well as by VTEC, ITEC and The Guild of Beauty Therapists.
You can, but you may prefer not to. For the first few days, your lips will look as if you're wearing strong lip colour, and they may be a little swollen. The colour softens over about four days. Many people book a few days off.
