Surgical scars and scars resulting from injury can be treated by paramedical tattooing when they are in a hypopigmented condition, or in other words, a lack of melanin.

 

  Minor scars resulting from a wide variety of medical procedures, ranging from cosmetic surgeries, will need to rest first and be treated with other forms of therapy before performing the final scar camouflage. 

​

  The appearance of scars can vary depending on several factors, including the type of surgery, the location of the incision, and the individual's skin type and healing process.

 

 Some scars may be raised, while others may be flat and darker or lighter than the surrounding skin. Results are expected to improve appearance and make the treatment less noticeable by adding skin tone pigments where the skin appears white. 

 

​ Skin revision or scar needling with vitamin serum can help to diminish thick, raised scars before scar camouflage treatment. 

​

Paramedical scar camouflage tattoo can help improve the overall appearance of scars by blending the color and texture of the scar with the surrounding skin.

 

The process involves using permanent cosmetic pigments to carefully match the skin tone and create the blended illusion of a smoother, more even surface. 

​

As a general guideline, it's best to wait at least 9-12 months after surgery to heal fully, and to talk with your doctor before having scar camouflage tattooing.

​

Waiting until the scar has stabilized and settled into its final appearance will help ensure the tattoo pigment is applied to a more predictable, consistent surface.

​

The size of the treated scar determines scar camouflage cost and requires consultation with photos provided if done virtually.  At Au Naturel, we only treat hypopigmented (white) scars usually from cosmetic facelifts around the hairline, as well as other minor surgical or accident scars. These can be combined with scalp density SMP in the same procedure.

 

Depending on the individual case, perfecting services may be required based on healing and aftercare of the initial outcome.

 Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP): The art of creating a perfectly natural-looking scalp.

​

 Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP) is a revolutionary cosmetic procedure that restores the appearance of a full, natural-looking hairline, regardless of hair type or hair loss stage.

 

 Using advanced micro-needling techniques, SMP deposits natural-toned pigments into the scalp, replicating the appearance of natural hair follicles.

 

 This treatment provides an instant solution for men and women experiencing thinning hair, receding hairlines, or pattern baldness, offering a non-surgical alternative to traditional hair restoration methods.

​

 Whether you’re looking to create the appearance of a fuller head of hair, camouflage post-surgical scars from hair transplants, facelift surgery, or add definition to an uneven hairline, SMP is customizable to suit each individual’s needs.

 

 The process is both subtle and highly effective, providing realistic, long-lasting results that blend seamlessly with your natural hair color and skin tone.
