Dark lips, whether due to genetic melanin concentration, ethnic phototype, hormonal shifts, or smoker's melanosis, require specialized expertise. Dark Lip Neutralisation is an advanced color correction procedure specifically engineered to lighten and neutralize cool undertones.
What Is Dark Lip Neutralisation?
Unlike classic lip pigmentation which deposits decorative shades, neutralisation relies on chromatic color theory. We deposit warm corrective pigments (warm orange, peach, and terracotta) to counteract blue, purple, and brown tones, gradually shifting the lips toward a natural beige-pink.
Why Does the Protocol Require Multiple Sessions?
Melanin-rich lips must be treated with supreme gentleness to avoid triggering post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH). A step-by-step approach over 2 to 4 sessions ensures safe, beautiful, and lasting lightening.
Dreaming of evenly toned lips?

Frequently Asked Questions
Why do my lips look darker right after the session?+
Mild post-procedure swelling and initial pigment oxidation can temporarily make lips appear darker for the first 48 hours. Once micro-crusts shed around Day 5, the brighter tone begins to reveal itself.
How many sessions will I need?+
Most clients require between 2 and 4 sessions, spaced 6 to 8 weeks apart, depending on the starting melanin density.
What is the cost of Dark Lip Neutralisation in Geneva?+
At Majida Glam, individual sessions are CHF 250, and our complete 4-session package is CHF 600.
Is the result permanent?+
Results last between 1 and 3 years. We recommend an annual maintenance session to preserve clear, bright color.
Can men have this treatment done?+
Yes! We treat many male clients looking for undetectable, natural neutralisation without any makeup effect.
