M's Fordyce Spot Lip Blush Cover Up
Client M was very insecure about these little whitish bumps on the lips, which are called Fordyce spots. They are relatively common and are caused by oil gland growths, which can be further triggered when filler is placed in the lips. Treatment of Fordyce spots is very difficult, expensive, and usually involves laser. Alternatively, lip blush tattoo can be used to place pigment over the Fordyce Spots for a more even tone throughout. These lips were the most sensitive and easily bruised that I’ve worked on but the results were the most satisfying due to the client’s reaction.
I used Permablend Organic inks - Mauve and Tres Pink
