Should I use permanent lip tattoo if I have hyperpigmentation across the middle of my upper lip? (photos)

Asked By:bunny T in Houston, TX

I have a line that runs horizontally on the middle of my upper lip I want to cover it up with permanent lip makeup as well as give my lips a more saturated rosy pink color. However, I am concerned that after the tattoo the line will look darker. For reference, I am female, 26 yo, southeast Asian descent and am prone to hyperpigmentation. My lips are usually dry, and I use lanolin as lip balm Is it possible to achieve a uniform lip color if I have a hyperpigmentation line?
