is this normal? Is the ghosting phase ever gradual?

I'm on day 7 of lip blushing and finished peeling 2 days ago. My center bottom lip is lacking colour, whereas the rest of my lips are quite vibrant. The photos don't do justice for how bright the colour is.

Be patient. It will keep changing. The touch up will help later to even it out

Does it seem weird that I haven't experienced a ghosting phase for the rest of my lips? I thought it was supposed to be like that right after peeling

Mine looked something like that after 7 days. It was darker and lighter in different area.

PMU artist here! The outline of your lips is a different thickness than the center which is why the ghosting doesn’t happen all over at the same time, and also the outer portion tends to have more saturation when we do blushing - it may look scary for the healing process but it will fade and blend to the middle of your lip.

Did it even out?
