Can You Get Micropigmentation Done on Lip Lift Scars?

Question

Is it possible to get permanent makeup done on lip lift surgery scars?

Raffy Karamanoukian, MD, FACS · Answer

Hidef protocols can help with visible lip lift scars on the face. I see a lot of these in my office in Beverly Hills. Surgery is often not needed if lasers and HIDEF scar revision techniques are introduced. 
In our office, we combine treatments starting with topical pre-conditioning of the scars with Plato's Scar Serum for hypertrophy and Melarase PM for pigmentation. Fractional RF, laser, and micro fractional RF can help limit scar growth. Kenalog IIT can also help reduce scar thickness. For lip lift scars specifically, I use selective Hyfrecation to reduce scarring.

Yes, any hypopigmented scar can be pigmented by an experienced permanent makeup artist. Expect the pigment not to last as long on the mucosal (wet) surface of the lip, so this may require a touch up more frequently.  Hope this helps
