Camouflage Scar Tattoos: For Ultimate Flawless Concealment

Camouflage Tattooing is a semi-permanent, non-invasive, safe, and efficient method of making scars less noticeable. It involves carefully infusing skin-toned ink pigments into the dermis to match your natural shade, masking imperfections. The innovative treatment does not eliminate unsightly scars but disguises them, blending them smoothly with the surrounding skin. In terms of boosting confidence, camouflage scar tattoos (skin depigmentation) can be life-changing.

First, women can undergo the Skin Camouflage procedure to create nipples and areolas after a mastectomy or breast reconstruction. Individuals with areas of skin affected by vitiligo can also benefit from Scar-Camouflaging treatment. Ultimately, the popular procedure is not only excellent for scars, injuries, and burns but also for acne and birthmarks.

 Camouflage Scar Tattoos – The Step-By-Step Process

Our highly skilled Skin Camouflage artists take great care to turn scars into perfect masterpieces:

  1. Consultation: Before your Scar Camouflage tattoo procedure, you will have a free consultation. First, we will determine if you are a good candidate for a Camouflage Tattoo, and if so, we will discuss the procedure and preparation. Additionally, we will evaluate your treatment plan which will require an average of 2-3 sessions.
  2. Colour matching: Camouflage Tattoos that are close to the colour of the skin are the best solution for hiding scar tissue. They create the illusion that the scars are not present when, in fact, they are concealed beneath the ink.
  3. Numbing: We use a numbing anaesthetic for individuals who are very sensitive to discomfort. The formula doesn’t affect the ink or the results.
  4. Tattoo application: After the anaesthetic has taken effect, the specialist injects the pigment into the skin with a fine needle. This procedure, also called Paramedical Tattooing, takes only three hours depending on the complexity of the scar and the desired result.
  5. Aftercare: Treated areas may be tender after the tattooing procedure. For this reason, we recommend you follow our post-care instructions regarding day-to-day recovery. This will involve keeping the skin clean and hydrated with a tattoo aftercare cream throughout the healing process. Likewise, we advise clients not to scratch or pick at the tattooed area and to stay out of direct sunlight.
