Camouflage Tattoo
Camouflage tattoo, also known as paramedical or skin tone tattooing, is a transformative cosmetic procedure designed to conceal skin imperfections. By expertly matching pigments to your natural skin tone, this technique seamlessly blends scars, stretch marks, vitiligo, and other discolorations with your skin for a smoother, more even, and natural-looking complexion.
Think of it as a more effective, semi-permanent version of concealer—giving you a flawless finish that lasts! After the healing process, scars and stretch marks are significantly less noticeable, empowering you to confidently wear whatever you love—shorts, skirts, dresses, swimsuits, and more.
It lasts from 1–5 years or even longer, depending on your skin type and lifestyle
Duration: 2–3 hours (depending on the size of the area and skin tone)
Pricing: Varies by treatment area (inquire for a personalized quote)

⚠️ IMPORTANT! Pre-Care Instructions
By following these pre-care steps, you ensure that your skin is in optimal condition for the procedure, allowing for better pigment retention, faster healing, and the best possible results.
4 Weeks Before Your Appointment:
• No laser treatments, microneedling, or chemical peels on the treated area.
• Avoid excessive sun exposure and tanning beds—skin must not be sunburned or irritated.
2 Weeks Before Your Appointment:
• Discontinue the use of retinol, glycolic acid, or any exfoliating skincare products on the area.
• No self-tanning lotions or sprays—this can interfere with color matching.
1 Week Before Your Appointment:
• Stay well-hydrated and keep the area moisturized daily for better pigment absorption.
• Avoid any new skin treatments or facials in the area to be treated.
24-48 Hours Before Your Appointment:
• No alcohol, caffeine, or blood-thinning medications (unless prescribed by a doctor) to reduce the risk of excessive bleeding and pigment loss.
• No vigorous exercise before the appointment to avoid increased blood flow to the area.
• If the area is shaved, do so at least 24 hours before to prevent irritation.
Day of the Procedure
• Shower before your appointment, as you’ll need to avoid getting the treated area wet for 24 hours afterward.
• Do not apply lotions, oils, or perfumes on the treatment area.
• Eat a light meal before arriving to avoid feeling lightheaded during the procedure.
• Arrive with clean skin—no makeup, deodorant, or products on the area being treated.
• Wear loose, comfortable clothing that allows easy access to the treatment area and won’t rub against your skin post-procedure.
The Camouflage Tattoo Process
1. Consultation: We begin with a thorough consultation to understand your skin concerns and goals. We assess the area to be treated and select the appropriate pigment shades.
2. Color Matching: We have revolutionary skin tone device that reads a person’s skin tone.
3. Safety: Your safety is our top priority. We disinfect the area with alcohol before starting and use only disposable needles and instruments, ensuring a clean and sterile procedure.
4. Numbing: Numbing cream is not applied, as the procedure is generally not painful.
5. Application: Using precise tattooing techniques, we apply the pigment to the target area, carefully blending it with the surrounding skin.
6. Aftercare: We provide detailed aftercare instructions to promote optimal healing and long-lasting results.
7. Touch-Up: Since everyone heals differently, a touch-up session may be required. The deeper and darker your stretch marks or imperfections, the more sessions may be necessary. The healing process can vary, typically taking anywhere from 1 week to 3 months.
Healing process of Camouflage Tattoo
DAY 1: Immediately after the procedure, the treated area will appear red and swollen. This is a normal reaction of the skin as this treatment promotes healing in order to work.
DAY 2: The swelling will subside but the redness will remain.
DAY 3: Oh no! The swelling is gone & the color is flaking off!
WEEK 2-5: Pigmentation will start to fade.
WEEK 4-6: Healed result may be visible during this period.
WEEK 6: Once the pigmentation is gone, you are then ready for your next session.
Just a reminder Camouflage Tattoo
THE PIGMENTATION WILL GRADUALLY FADE OVER TIME, BUT HEALING PERIOD MAY VARY BETWEEN INDIVIDUALS. WHILE SOME MAY HEAL COMPLETELY WITHIN A WEEK, OTHERS MAY TAKE LONGER. IF THE TREATED AREA REMAINS BROWN, IT INDICATES INCOMPLETE HEALING, SO PATIENCE IS ADVISED AS EVERYONE'S HEALING PROCESS IS UNIQUE.

Healing tips Camouflage Tattoo
- THINGS TO AVOID:
- No saltwater, no exfoliation, no laser hair removal or waxing on areas for 14 days
- 1st 30 days, do not use sunscreen, sunblock, self-tanning or any substance that contains vitamin D
- Do not shower with hot water as it may cause irritation for the first few days.
- Do not take vitamin D pills

WHAT TO EXPECT DURING HEALING
The treated area may appear red and swollen immediately after the treatment.
After 24 hours, the swelling will subside, but the redness may persist for up to 72 hours.
Following 72 hours, the redness will gradually transition to a brownish tone (hyperpigmentation).
Hyperpigmentation might persist for a period ranging from one to three months.
If the treatment was performed on the legs, the healing process may extend up to six months, especially for individuals with darker complexions.
Please refrain from being alarmed if the hyperpigmentation takes some time to fade; this is a normal part of the skin's healing process. To expedite healing, it's advisable to avoid foods and beverages high in sugar, as elevated sugar levels can prolong the healing process. Instead, focus on consuming vegetables, as many of them possess healing properties (consult your doctor if you have any underlying medical conditions).
Smoking can also impede the healing process.
