Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Lip Threading.

Threading causes mild, brief discomfort—often described as quick pinches. Most clients feel soreness only during the procedure and slight redness afterward that fades within 10–30 minutes; any tenderness typically subsides within a few hours to a day.

Results usually last two to four weeks depending on individual hair growth cycles, hormonal factors, and hair thickness. Regular appointments can lead to sparser regrowth and longer intervals between sessions.

Yes—when performed by experienced technicians who use gentle technique. We assess skin condition beforehand, avoid inflamed areas, and recommend tailored aftercare to minimize irritation and breakouts for sensitive or acne-prone skin.

Arrive with a clean, makeup-free upper lip. Avoid heavy exfoliation or chemical treatments 48 hours prior and don’t pluck or wax the area so hair is present at an optimal length for threading.

Threading can occasionally cause mild irritation or ingrown hairs. Proper exfoliation after 48 hours and following aftercare (no heavy makeup, avoid sun) reduces risks; we provide guidance if you’re prone to ingrowns.

We recommend waiting at least 4 to 6 hours before applying makeup to reduce irritation and infection risk; for sensitive skin, waiting 24 hours is best. Use clean, non-comedogenic products and gentle application.
