Scar Rejuvenation

Plastic surgery scars: We work closely with plastic surgeons around the UK to ensure you achieve optimal post-surgical results. Scar needling and medical tattooing improves the texture and colour of scars and allows for adjustments to the nipple/ areola complex, belly button etc after plastic surgery.
Injury scars
Self-harm scars: Medical tattooing and needling is an effective way to camouflage self-harm scars with the surrounding skin

Considerations

Downtime Post-treatment, you may experience mild redness for up to 72 hours, but it should not interfere with daily activities. It's important to follow aftercare instructions, avoiding sun exposure, swimming, saunas, Jacuzzis, and intense gym sessions until fully healed.

Aftercare Aftercare is crucial for optimal healing. Avoid picking at scabs to prevent infection and pigment loss. Keep the area dry and avoid swimming, sunbathing, or using saunas/jacuzzis for two weeks post-procedure.

Suitability Skin camouflage and medical needling are suitable for various conditions, such as vitiligo, burns, and post-surgical scars, provided the scars are fully healed and at least one year old. 3D nipple and areola restoration is ideal for individuals seeking enhancement or post-mastectomy reconstruction. A free consultation is the best way to determine your suitability for treatment.

“What happens when I tan?” The pigments used in scar camouflage tattoos are expertly matched to your skin & scar’s undertones (think yellows, reds, purples and everything in between) to cancel out colour discrepancies and reduce that noticeable white shine. So, while your camouflaged area might look slightly lighter than the surrounding skin when you tan, it will still blend seamlessly with your skin’s undertone, making it much less noticeable than before.

Remember, applying high SPF sunscreen to your camouflaged scar is key to keeping the treated area flawless.
