By filling the affected areas with carefully selected pigments, this procedure diminishes the visibility of scars and stretch marks, providing a natural, blended look. While it cannot erase the scar completely, it significantly reduces its prominence, allowing you to embrace your skin confidently.

The pigments are carefully inserted into the affected areas, seamlessly blending with your skin tone and reducing the visual impact of stretch marks and scars. The best part?

Is this the same as ISR – Inkless Stretch Mark Camouflage Revision?
No, Scar and Stretch Mark Camouflage, unlike ISR, utilize approved tattooing ink within our certified methods. ISR, on the other hand, involves a specialized serum applied to the skin. It’s crucial to note that, in the state of Maryland, only estheticians and medical practitioners are authorized to administer skin serums. If you’re considering this option, diligent research is essential to make informed decisions.
Are you a candidate for our services?
In the preliminary evaluation, you can determine eligibility on your own. We primarily focus on two factors for scars and stretch marks all over the body:
- Scar color
- Scar texture
Scar Color
If your scars or stretch marks are white, you’re likely a candidate for our inked stretch mark camouflage services!
However, if your scars are red, pink, dark grey, brown, or fleshtone, we won’t be able to tattoo on them yet. These colors often indicate ongoing healing of the scars.
Understanding Stretch Mark Color and Treatment Options:
- Dark Stretch Marks: Hyper-pigmented stretch marks, typically not suitable for skin color ink; may still be in the healing process.
- Red Stretch Marks: Stretch marks in red or pink hues, usually indicative of ongoing healing; may eventually turn white.
- Grey Stretch Marks: Stretch marks appearing grey or purple, better candidates for the inkless camouflage method.
- Flesh Tone Stretch Marks: When there isn’t enough contrast between skin tone and stretch marks, the inkless method is a better option.
Scar Texture
If your scars or stretch marks have a smooth texture, you are likely to meet our texture criteria for the inked camouflage service.
However, if the scars or stretch marks have an uneven texture, we may recommend connecting with a skincare specialist from our network. They can help develop a care plan to treat the texture of your scars or stretch marks before considering the inked camouflage procedure. Our goal is to ensure the best possible outcome for your specific situation.
