Scar Camouflage

Using medical tattoing treatments Bellissimo North East are able to help camouflage/hide light coloured scars.  This is achieved through infusing scar tissue with our skin coloured pigments.

Whilst we are happy to assess individual needs we have found that generally scars that at over 12 months old and paler than the surrounding skin are those that benefit most from our treatment.

For example some scars are hyper-pigmented (darker in colour) whilst some are raised or sunken which can reduce the effectiveness of our treatment.

Historically the best results have been achieved for those who have medical scars especially as a result of a clean cut for example from facelifts if breast remodelling.

The Consultation

We will need to create multiple blends of our pigment to take into account the tonal variances of normal skin.  We will undertake 2-3 microscopic colour match tests and over a period of approximately one month we should be able to assess how the scar will appear once actually treated.

By infusing the pigments we are able to form subtle but necessary colour variations which are present in natural skin which is essential for a good result.

A pigment infusion session will normally take an hour.  Each person is different however you will require multiple sessions depending on the size of your scar.
