Tattooing your lips?! In this video, registered dental hygienist Whitney breaks down everything you need to know about lip tattoos—from inner lip tattoos (hidden inside your mouth) to cosmetic procedures like lip blush and permanent lip liner. While these trends are often marketed as low-maintenance beauty upgrades, Whitney explains why the mouth is a completely different environment than skin, with higher bacteria levels, delicate tissue, and increased risks of infection, irritation, and unpredictable healing. She dives into the science behind oral tissue, why inner lip tattoos fade quickly, and the potential long-term concerns with tattoo ink ingredients, including limited regulation in the U.S. Plus, she shares essential safety tips on choosing a licensed artist, ensuring proper sterilization, and protecting your oral health before and after the procedure. If you’re considering a lip tattoo or permanent makeup, this video will help you make an informed decision.
