Scar Camouflage Tattoo in Vancouver, WA

• Scar Camouflage utilizes specialized cosmetic tattooing techniques to seamlessly blend scars with the surrounding skin tone, reducing their visibility.
• If you have scars or areas of skin lacking pigment or mismatched to your natural tone, this procedure could be ideal for you. Custom flesh-tone pigments are precisely matched to ensure seamless blending. With multiple treatments, scars become less noticeable, and some may even become virtually undetectable.

• Inkless scar serum treatments offer a cost-effective and non-invasive alternative to laser procedures.
• They are highly effective in minimizing the appearance of scars and stretch marks by utilizing a pigment-free vitamin serum, which is micro-needled into the skin using a tattoo machine.

• We utilize micropigmentation with flesh-pigment tattoo ink to disguise radiation markers, resulting in small moles or freckle-like marks.
• This camouflage tattoo can be applied to any part of the body.

Consultations are crucial for scar treatment appointments.

• We offer consultations via email or text, where you can provide photos for assessment. Prior consultation, including photos, is mandatory for all scar treatment appointments.
• While not all scars may be suitable for tattoo camouflage, most can benefit from one or both of our treatments. It's worthwhile to schedule a free consultation to assess if we can assist in minimizing your scars.
• Since most treatments require multiple sessions, a consultation enables us to provide an accurate quote for your treatment series.

• Your scar must be fully healed for at least one year before considering camouflage. Please note that not all scars are suitable for camouflage.

• The process typically entails minimal pain, as scar tissue generally lacks the same level of sensitivity as healthy tissue. Both camouflage tattooing and inkless serum treatments are typically pain-free.
• We're more than happy to provide topical numbing to alleviate any discomfort if necessary.

• Indeed, some self-harm scars can be effectively minimized.
• We recognize the significance of reducing the visibility of self-harm scars.
• When the scars are lighter than the surrounding skin, scar camouflage tattooing can be employed to diminish their appearance.
• You may send us pictures and we will evaluate for you.

Absolutely! Scar camouflage can be used on the face and lips.

• In fact, the face is one of the easiest areas for scar camouflage.
• Additionally, we provide velvet lip tattooing services.
• If you have a scar that extends through your lips onto your skin, we can perform lip blush tattooing in combination with scar camouflage on the outer lip area.

• The Inkless Scar Serum Treatment utilizes a rotary tattoo machine to induce controlled trauma to the scar tissue while simultaneously delivering a specialized serum into the skin. This process prompts the body to initiate the healing process. Importantly, this method does not involve the use of ink.
• On the other hand, Scar Camouflage Tattooing employs skin-tone ink to conceal the scar, blending it seamlessly with the surrounding skin tone.
