This lip blush for uneven lip colour began with three visibly different tones: a darker area across the upper lip and its border, a lighter section within the upper lip, and a different colour on the lower lip. Nooshin’s aim was to soften the contrast with a carefully chosen pigment mix, while keeping the client’s preferred colour in mind.
Procedure date:
Planning lip blush for uneven lip colour
The starting colour mattered as much as the shade the client wanted. In the before photo, the upper lip has a darker band that contrasts with the rest of the lip. Simply choosing a favourite pigment would not explain how that border might look beside the lighter areas.
Nooshin considered the lip undertone and mixed the colour for this particular starting point. She adapted her application to work toward a more consistent appearance between the areas. The goal was a softer transition across the lip colour, rather than leaving the darker upper border visually separate.
A history of filler made this an individual assessment
The client had received lip filler several times before this appointment. Nooshin described the combination of that history and the uneven starting tones as a challenging case requiring careful work. The story does not specify the filler product, injection dates, pigment formula, or equipment settings, so those details are not inferred here.
Her colour decision brought together the client’s preference, the existing undertone, and the intended appearance after healing. Lip blush with previous filler was part of this client’s history; it is not evidence that the same colour or approach would suit every person with filler.
The immediate result without added gloss
The photographs without added gloss show the freshly applied pigment from an angled view and from the front. The colour is visibly stronger than the starting tone, with coverage across both lips. Nooshin identified these as immediate post-treatment images, not photographs of a healed result.
These close-ups document the treatment-stage appearance. They cannot establish the final colour retention or confirm how evenly the different areas will settle. A more uniform, natural-looking healed tone was the treatment goal, and that goal still needs a healed follow-up to assess.
What changes when gloss is added?
The glossy photograph shows the same fresh treatment with added shine. Its reflections make the surface look different from the pigment-only views. The gloss is a finish for the photograph, not a separate treatment session or evidence of a later healing stage.
The three-panel comparison separates the glossy view, the immediate result without added gloss, and the original lip colour. Keeping these stages labelled makes it easier to understand what the photos actually show.
Why the healed colour remains unconfirmed
For this case, Nooshin explained that she wanted to wait about three months before judging the final shade. She expected the bold fresh colour to soften substantially, describing roughly half of the initial intensity as potentially fading. That was her expectation for the healing discussion, not a measured retention result for this client.
She also described how the colour could appear much lighter after the initial peeling stage and become more visible again as healing progresses. No follow-up photos or measured healing observations were supplied, so this case does not claim those changes have already occurred.
Nooshin noted that lips with two or three starting tones may require several sessions to work toward the desired balance. The number of sessions needed for this client, and whether any further sessions took place, are not documented in this intake.
Discuss your starting lip tone and colour goal
