Offering professional lip pigmentation, Lip Blush and permanent lip colour treatments in Galata and Beyoğlu, Beyoğlu Aesthetic & Nail Art Studio by DRTU enhances natural lip beauty with personalised colour design and expert techniques.
Our lip pigmentation treatments are performed by specialists with 15 years of experience in the field. For each treatment, we assess your natural lip colour, skin undertone, lip texture and aesthetic expectations to create a colour plan that suits your face.
In our treatments, we use premium, European-made professional permanent makeup pigments. Colour quality, suitability for lip tissue and properties that help achieve natural results are our priorities when choosing materials.
Our aim is not just to add colour to the lips, but to create a more vibrant, balanced and well-groomed look while preserving their natural borders and character.
We support this approach with our doctor-supervised working environment, our surgical operating-theatre-grade autoclave sterilisation system and our experienced specialists.
Lip pigmentation is a permanent makeup treatment in which professional pigments designed specifically for the lips are applied to the lip tissue using suitable devices and techniques.
Also known as Lip Blush or permanent lip colour, this method is chosen to enhance the natural colour of the lips, visually balance uneven tones and create a more vibrant look.
It may be considered by people whose natural lip colour is very light, who have tonal differences between the lip border and the centre of the lips, or who want more defined lip colour without having to wear lipstick all the time.
Depending on the desired result, the treatment can be planned with soft, sheer colour gradients or with more pronounced tones.
Lip pigmentation does not physically add volume. Unlike lip fillers, it does not change the anatomical volume of the lips. Instead, it aims to make the natural lip borders and colour look more balanced.
In a successful lip pigmentation treatment, what matters is not just choosing a beautiful colour, but being able to predict how the chosen colour will blend with the person’s natural lip tone.
At Beyoğlu Aesthetic & Nail Art Studio by DRTU, we take a personalised approach to colour planning rather than a ready-made system applied the same way to everyone.
Our specialists assess the existing pigmentation of the lips, the skin undertone, the lip borders and your preferred colour intensity together.
Soft pink, nude, dusty rose, natural peach and shades close to your own lip colour are among the options to consider for an elegant look.
When a more vibrant result is preferred, different colour alternatives suited to the natural structure of the lips can be planned.
Especially where the two lips differ in colour or there is noticeable pigmentation around the lips, the choice of colour and technique may require a more detailed assessment.
Our goal is not just a colour that stands out after the treatment, but an aesthetic lip tone that harmonises with the natural look of your face once healing is complete.
Since lip pigmentation is performed on delicate tissue, the experience of the practitioner and the properties of the materials used are important.
At our studio, treatments are performed by specialists with 15 years of experience in permanent makeup.
This experience forms the foundation of our approach in terms of assessing lip anatomy, determining the appropriate pigment intensity, planning colour transitions and choosing techniques suited to different lip structures.
The European-made professional pigments we use are selected from premium permanent makeup products.
When choosing materials, we take into account the ingredient and safety information provided by the manufacturer, suitability for the lip area, colour properties and tissue compatibility.
Especially in natural Lip Blush treatments, we aim to create soft colour transitions that blend with the lips’ own colour, rather than harsh contour lines.
We personalise the treatment plan, bearing in mind that not every lip will take pigment in the same way and that individual sensitivities can vary.
One of the things people considering lip pigmentation most often wonder about is how the colour will change after the treatment.
Immediately after the treatment, the lips may look darker, glossier and more intense than the intended final colour. Mild swelling and sensitivity in the first few days can also affect this appearance.
The strong colour you see on the first day is not the final colour of your lips after healing.
As healing progresses, temporary surface changes subside and the pigment softens. A colour that looks very vivid at first may gradually become more natural and in harmony with your lip tone.
Dryness and fine flaking may occur in the first few days. During this time, some areas may temporarily look lighter or uneven.
Although surface healing usually progresses noticeably within the first week, a period of 4–8 weeks is generally allowed before the colour can be fully assessed.
The final result may vary depending on your natural lip colour, pigment retention and your individual healing characteristics.
For this reason, we recommend not judging the result by the colour intensity on the first day after the treatment.
Our professional lip colour treatment begins with an assessment of the current condition of the lips.
1. Initial assessment: The natural colour and texture of the lips, any pigmentation differences and previous treatments are examined.
2. Colour and design planning: Pigment options suited to your skin undertone and expectations are determined. The colour distribution is planned taking into account the natural borders of the lips.
3. Pigment application: The chosen colours are applied by our specialist using professional devices and techniques suited to lip pigmentation.
4. Post-treatment information: The healing process, colour changes and points to watch out for in lip care are explained.
5. Result assessment: Once healing is complete, the appearance of the pigment is assessed.
If necessary, a touch-up can be planned.
The duration of the treatment and the technique used may vary depending on the current condition of the lips and the scope of the planned treatment.
Lip Blush can also be performed on people who have previously had lip fillers, following a suitability assessment.
However, since lip fillers and pigmentation are different treatments, the timing of the filler and the current condition of the lip tissue must be taken into account.
After fillers, the volume, surface tension and appearance of the lips may have changed. For this reason, planning the pigment treatment requires an individual assessment.
On some filled lips, an additional touch-up may be needed after healing to achieve even colour. That said, a touch-up is not mandatory for every lip with filler.
If you have recently had fillers or already have pigment on your lips from a previous treatment, we recommend sharing this information with our specialist before your appointment.
Not every client needs a touch-up after lip pigmentation.While the desired colour consistency can be achieved after the first session on some lips, others may need minor corrections depending on how the pigment has settled after healing.
The decision on a touch-up is made by our specialist once the lips have healed and the colour has settled.
Check-up and touch-up sessions are not included as standard in the price of the initial lip pigmentation treatment. However, terms may differ depending on the service or package chosen.
When a touch-up is needed, a small additional treatment fee and a needle/materials fee may be charged depending on the scope of the work.
Whether a touch-up is needed, the scope of the work and any additional fees are assessed individually.
For this reason, before booking, please ask our team which services are included in the initial treatment price and what the check-up and touch-up terms are.
At Beyoğlu Aesthetic & Nail Art Studio by DRTU, we consider hygiene to be a fundamental part of our professional permanent makeup services.
In our doctor-supervised working environment, our reusable, sterilisable metal instruments are sterilised in professional autoclave devices of the type also used in surgical operating theatres.
Once sterilised, our instruments are stored in suitable sterilisation pouches and opened at the time of use.
The needles and disposable consumables used in pigmentation treatments are always new and sterile for each client. Disposable equipment is never reused.
Preparing the work area, using equipment under proper conditions and maintaining hygiene rules after the treatment are all part of our professional process.
In this way, we aim to offer a service environment that cares as much about client comfort and infection control as it does about the aesthetic result.
Before the treatment, it is important to tell our specialist about any lip fillers, permanent makeup or pigmentation treatments you have had in the past.
Any known allergies, medications you are taking and existing sensitivities in the lip area should also be mentioned during the assessment.
The treatment should be postponed if there is an active cold sore, an open wound, an infection or noticeable irritation on the lips. People who have had cold sores before are advised to consult a doctor beforehand, as the treatment can trigger a recurrence.
After the treatment, the lips need to be protected appropriately during the healing process.It is important not to pick at any fine flaking on the lip surface, not to rub the area and to use the recommended care products as instructed.
During the healing period, cosmetic products that may cause irritation and heavy friction should be avoided.
If you experience more pain than expected or pain that keeps getting worse, spreading redness, discharge containing pus, fever or signs of a serious allergic reaction, you should consult a healthcare professional.
Permanent lip colour is a treatment that can provide long-lasting colour. Nevertheless, pigments can fade over time and the colour intensity may decrease.
For many people, the visible colour effect can fade noticeably within about 1–3 years.
However, this period varies according to individual characteristics and does not guarantee that the pigment will disappear completely.
Lip tissue, the pigments used, skin characteristics, sun exposure and daily care habits are among the factors that affect how long it lasts.
Over time, a colour refresh treatment may be chosen. This is different from the touch-up that may be needed after the first treatment has healed and is planned separately according to the condition of the existing pigment.

Lip pigmentation does not physically add volume. However, more balanced lip colour and more defined borders can help the lips stand out visually.It is not the same as filler treatments carried out to increase lip volume.
The discomfort felt during the treatment may vary depending on personal sensitivity. Some
people feel mild stinging or tenderness, while for others the discomfort may be more noticeable.
Before the treatment, our specialist will explain the process and anything that may affect your comfort.
Pigmentation can be applied to some dark or uneven lip tones. However, not every lip colour can be treated with the same technique.
Suitability is determined by taking into account the intensity of the natural pigmentation, previous treatments and the target colour. In some cases, it may not be possible to achieve the desired lighter shade.
After the treatment, you should wait for the lip tissue to heal. In the first few days, using lipstick and similar cosmetics may pose a risk of irritation or contamination.
When you can start wearing lipstick is determined by how you are healing and your specialist's aftercare instructions.
Pressure or friction on the lips during the initial healing period can cause irritation. Close contact can also pose a hygiene risk for the healing tissue.
For this reason, it is recommended to avoid direct contact until the lip surface has healed.
In people who have had cold sores before, the treatment can trigger a reactivation of the cold sore virus.
If you have a history of cold sores, it is important to consult a doctor before the treatment. The treatment should not be performed when there is an active cold sore.
In some cases, yes. However, the colour, intensity and distribution of the previous pigment and the current condition of the lip tissue must be assessed.
Applying new colour directly over old pigmentation may not always be appropriate. The right approach is determined through a specialist assessment.
Touch-ups and check-ups are not included as standard in the initial treatment price. Different terms may apply depending on the service or package.
When a touch-up is needed, a small additional treatment fee and a needle/materials fee may be charged. You can get information about the exact scope and pricing before your appointment.
It may not be suitable for everyone. An active infection, an open wound in the lip area, certain skin problems, a history of allergies or some health conditions can affect the treatment plan.
Suitability is determined by a specialist assessment before the treatment; a doctor's opinion is sought when necessary.
You can book a lip pigmentation appointment by contacting Beyoğlu Aesthetic & Nail Art Studio by DRTU.
Sharing a photo of your current lips and an example of the colour you like can help with the initial assessment and treatment planning.
