Cosmetic Lip Tattoo
No one wants to look older than they really are!
What if you could wear your favourite lip shade every day without the need to apply and remove it? What about lips that were more full and symmetrical?
Well that dream can actually be a reality – cosmetic lip tattoos are one of three semi-permanent cosmetic tattoo procedures offered at Clynic.
Cosmetic Lip Tattoo Sunshine Coast
Skin needling uses micro needles – and those are very thin ones, with very sharp points – on a medical grade roller or a pen that is moved over the skin to create tiny, evenly spaced micro-punctures, which go through the skin.
This creates a microscopic, generally painless, injury to the deeper dermal layer, with minimal damage to the upper epidermal layer.
The minor injury and bleeding triggers a wound healing response in the skin, which results the body producing more collagen and elastin – the compounds that add structure and strength – so that you have brighter, firmer skin.

Cosmetic Lip Tattoo FAQ's
Before the procedure, you’ll need to decide on whether you want a full lip tattoo or just the outline – and have an idea of what kind of shade of colour you want.
First the lip design will be drawn onto your lips so you can confirm you are happy with the shape and design.
Then the ink is deposited into the skin with tiny needles. The painfulness of the procedure depends on individual pain sensitivity. But at Clynic, you will need to go to a compounding pharmacy to get numbing cream especially for you.
After the procedure is complete, a sterile bandage will be applied to your lips.
A new tattoo can take up to 2 weeks to heal. But after that, your beautiful, full and tattooed lips will be revealed.
When you get a lip tattoo, the collagen in your lips is enhanced, along with elasticity. This gives the appearance of a fuller lip –
Some clients have experienced up to 3mm difference!
You’ll find this fullness lasts for as long as the colour – Between 18 months and 3 years (and maybe even longer!).
Both lip fullness and lip colour can last between 18 months and 3 years (and maybe even longer!).
If you wear lipstick, lip tattoos can save you loads of time and effort in applying and removing.
It’s also great for people with uneven lip colour or lips that aren’t symmetrical. A lip design can be drawn to correct a symmetry issue.
You won’t lose your lipstick when you’re eating or drinking – Your cosmetic lip tattoo is there to stay (for at least a little while!)
