Scar camouflage
A noticeable scar, pesky stretch marks or white spots you’d like to get rid of? If so, you have probably discovered by now that these are unfortunately difficult to treat. Although there is some good news: just because we can’t change much about the structure doesn’t mean there is nothing more we can do. The original scar is still there, but by coloring the skin locally with medical pigments, it is much less noticeable.
Treatment:
The treatment itself is very simple: using pigmentation techniques, we can locally color the skin to camouflage scars. These can be scars from surgery or accidents, but also white spots from sun damage or even stretch marks. This can be done for any skin tone or type, although it’s best to come at a time when your skin is not too tanned by the sun. After all, pigment does not tint with it. Just know: scar tissue is unpredictable. It’s hard to say how smoothly the skin will absorb the pigment, but in most cases, several sessions are needed for the scar to fade nicely.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, with the exception of keloid scars. These are caused by excessive growth of scar tissue and can be recognized by the fact that they lie more on the skin. Also, the scar must be completely healed. That is, at least two years have passed since you incurred the scar. In some cases, it is necessary to pre-treat the scar with other techniques.
Scar camouflage is best done in the winter, when your skin is not at its palest. Keep in mind that in summer the pigment will not tan with you after a day in the sun.
Yes and no. The skin can be numbed locally, but you will always feel it a little. It is normal for the area to feel a little weird after the treatment; after all, it looks like the skin is open again. This is only temporary, and can be improved by rubbing the skin with wound healing ointment for a week afterwards.
It depends on the size of the scar. During the intake we can make a good estimate of this.
Of course you can see that the color is different, but in most cases you will need several treatments for the best results. Often we can give a good idea of this during the intake session.
