The Technique
Fine Hairstrokes. Thoughtful Design. A Softer Result.
Nano Brows are created using super-fine hairstrokes in the superficial layer of the skin.
This allows the colour to gradually fade over time while helping maintain a soft and natural appearance.
The technique requires precision, patience and careful attention to detail.
Because every stroke is created with such care, the first session may take a little longer.
The goal isn't to make your brows look tattooed. It's to make them look naturally defined.
A Thoughtful Approach
Natural Beauty At Every Stage
We always aim for a natural result, particularly when working with sensitive and mature skin.
Our approach is deliberately subtle.
Rather than overworking the brows, we focus on creating fine hairstrokes that complement the natural brow structure and gradually soften as the pigment fades.
This careful approach helps preserve the flexibility to refresh and adjust the brows over time.
Designed To Fade Naturally
Why We Aim For Around 18 Months
Our goal is for your Nano Brows to last up to around 18 months —
rather than staying in the skin for many years.
As pigment remains in the skin for longer periods, there is a greater possibility of colour changes over time, including unwanted bluish or greyish tones.
By allowing the result to gradually fade, you have more flexibility to refresh your brows while keeping them looking soft and natural.
Longevity varies between individuals.

LIP NEUTRALIZATION • MELBOURNE
A Softer, Brighter,
More Balanced
Lip Tone.
Personalised Lip Neutralization for naturally dark or uneven lips.
Every pair of lips is unique. The level and distribution of natural melanin can vary significantly, which is why Lip Neutralization at HIVIVI begins with understanding your individual lip condition.
Through a gradual and personalised approach, we work towards a softer, naturally rosy lip tone while preserving the natural texture and translucency of your lips.
The HIVIVI Approach
Your Lips Deserve a Personalised Approach.
No two lips are the same.
Lip Neutralization is a specialised cosmetic tattooThe level, depth and distribution of melanin can differ from person to person, which means there is no single formula for Lip Neutralization.
Before treatment begins, we carefully assess your lips and create a personalised plan based on your natural pigmentation, undertones and individual needs.
Our goal is not to cover your lips with one heavy layer of colour. Instead, we work gradually and carefully, building towards a softer, brighter and more naturally balanced lip tone.
A DIFFERENT STARTING POINT
When Your Natural Lip Colour Doesn’t Feel Like You.
Maybe you’ve tried lipstick, liners, tinted balms and home remedies.
But the underlying pigmentation is still there.
Dark, purple, blue or uneven tones can make your lips feel different from how you'd like them to look.
Lip Neutralization takes a different approach. Instead of simply covering the colour, we work with your natural lip tone to gradually create a softer, more balanced appearance.
Uneven Tone
Dark or inconsistent pigmentation across the lips.
Cool Undertones
Purple, blue or grey tones that affect your natural lip colour.
Makeup Dependence
Feeling like you need lipstick or liner every day to feel confident.
The HIVIVI Approach
A Treatment Designed Around You
Depending on the level of pigmentation, some clients may require additional preparation before pigment is introduced.
Every treatment plan is different. Your natural lip condition, pigmentation level and how your lips respond throughout the process all influence the approach we take.
There is no one-size-fits-all approach to Lip Neutralization.
Our Goal
A Soft, Naturally Rosy Base
Our aim is to create a soft and natural-looking lip tone while preserving the natural texture and translucency of your lips. We do not want the result to look heavy, opaque or overly tattooed.
Instead, colour is gradually built to create a balanced appearance that still looks like your natural lips. Once your desired result is achieved, you may find it easier to wear a wider range of lipstick colours with greater confidence.
Soft
Natural-looking colour without a heavy appearance.
Balanced
A more even-looking overall lip tone.
Translucent
Natural lip texture remains visible.

Lip Neutralization Is a Journey.
Achieving a beautiful, natural result takes time, patience and consistency. Each appointment builds upon the previous session, allowing us to gradually work towards a more balanced and brighter lip tone.
Step 01
Assess
We carefully assess your natural lip condition, pigmentation and undertones.
Step 02
Prepare
Where required, additional preparation may be recommended to help reduce excess pigmentation before colour is introduced.
Step 03
Neutralise
Carefully selected pigments are introduced gradually to help balance unwanted darker or cooler tones.
Step 04
Heal
Your lips are given time to heal and allow the colour to develop naturally.
Step 05
Refine
Once healed, your result is assessed and the next stage of your treatment journey can be determined.
The HIVIVI Philosophy
We Don’t Cover. We Correct.
We don’t try to cover dark lips with one heavy layer of colour. Instead, we take a gradual and personalised approach that respects your natural lip condition.
Step by step, we work towards a softer, brighter and more even-looking result while maintaining the natural appearance of your lips.
Respect the Natural Lip
Every treatment begins with understanding your individual lip condition.
Build Gradually
Colour is developed progressively rather than forcing an immediate result.
Prioritise Natural Beauty
The goal is a soft, balanced result that still looks like you.
The Result Is a Process.
Lip Neutralization is designed to create gradual improvement rather than an instant transformation. Immediately after treatment, the colour may appear stronger or more intense than the healed result.
As your lips heal, the colour gradually softens and settles. For more deeply pigmented lips, multiple sessions may be required.
Before
Naturally deeper pigmentation with cooler undertones, assessed prior to treatment.
After Session
Immediately after a session, colour appears stronger than the healed result.
Healed Result
Once healed, colour softens and settles into a more balanced tone.
Lip Neutralization typically requires at least 3 sessions and may take up to 7 sessions or more depending on your individual pigmentation and how your lips respond throughout the process.

What You Can Expect
Softer Tone
Work towards a softer and more balanced overall lip appearance.
Natural-Looking Results
Gradually reduce the appearance of uneven or unwanted darker tones.
Healthy Lips texture
Create a softer, more balanced base that can make wearing different lipstick shades easier.
Lip Neutralization cannot guarantee a specific shade or colour outcome.

The colour you see immediately after treatment is not the final result. Your lips need time to heal, settle and reveal the developing colour.
First Few Days
Colour may appear stronger or more intense immediately after treatment. Mild dryness, tenderness or swelling may occur.
During Healin
The colour gradually softens and develops. Flaking or peeling may occur as the lips heal.
Healed Result
The colour settles into a softer and more natural-looking appearance.
Next Step
Once healed, your result can be assessed and your next session can be planned if required

Soft, Translucent Colour That Looks Naturally Yours
The beauty of Lip Blush is in the healed result.
Our goal is to create a soft, translucent wash of colour that looks beautifully natural, as though you were simply born with it. As the lips heal, the initial intensity settles into a softer, more natural-looking colour that complements your features rather than looking like heavy lipstick.
We follow your natural brow shape and hair growth pattern to create subtle definition and fullness that complements your features.

Questions
Good to Know
What is Lip Neutralization?
Lip Neutralization is a specialised cosmetic tattoo colour-correction technique designed to gradually balance darker, cooler or uneven lip pigmentation.
How many sessions will I need?
The number of sessions varies depending on your natural pigmentation and how your lips respond throughout the process. Lip Neutralization typically requires at least 3 sessions and may take 7 sessions or more.
Why does Lip Neutralization require multiple sessions?
Dark or highly pigmented lips often require a gradual approach. Each session allows colour to be built progressively while giving the lips time to heal and the result to develop.
Will my lips become pink?
The final result varies from person to person. The goal is to work towards a softer, brighter and naturally rosy-looking tone rather than guarantee a specific shade.
Why can't you just use a lighter or pink pigment?
Your preferrAed colour direction can be discussed during consultation. The final result is influenced by your natural lip colour and individual characteristics.
Will my lips look heavily tattooed?
The goal is to avoid a heavy or opaque appearance. Colour is built gradually to maintain a soft and translucent-looking result.
Can previously tattooed lips be neutralised?
Lip Blush may help enhance the appearance of lip definition and balance, but the extent of what can be achieved varies by individual. This should be discussed during consultation.
How long does the process take?
The overall journey varies from client to client because healing time and the number of sessions required are individual.
What happens during the consultation?
Your lips are assessed for pigmentation, undertones and previous treatment history. Your goals are discussed and an appropriate treatment plan is recommended.
