Permanent Lipstick is Too Dark, Is There a Way to Lighten it?

I had a perm. full lip make up done tree weeks ago but my lips turned out to be a dark purple/blueish instead of pink. Will this fade off? It's been 3 weeks but I don't see any changes to the color. It's still very dark. This is so frustrating and embarassing! Is this some kind of scarring on my lips? I have more lines on my lips than before after getting this perm. lip make up done. Please help. How can I get rid of this dark lips?

Permanent lip make up

Most tattoos will fade but will take a long time. Wait 3 months if it is still darker than what you want consult a Tattoo removal by laser. It MAY soten the colors. It will depend on the type amd make of the pigment.

What is your ethnic origin? many ethnicities are not good candidates for permanent Lips. Please do NOT do any type of laser until you speak with a PMU professional. Many lasers can turn the pigments used for lips BLACK in an instant.
