Scar Camouflaging is a cosmetic procedure that uses permanent pigments to blend scars, stretch marks, and areas of hypopigmentation with the surrounding natural skin tone. This technique can significantly enhance the appearance of skin imperfections, offering a more uniform and even look.

Lip Blushing

Lip Neutralization
Lip Neutralization is a procedure that targets the dark melanin spots and patches on the lips. It can color correct inconsistencies from scaring and hyperpigmentation.
3D Areola Reconstruction
3D areola reconstruction is a specialized form of cosmetic tattooing designed to recreate the appearance of a nipple and areola on the skin after breast reconstruction surgery or mastectomy. The procedure involves the meticulous application of pigment to mimic the natural color, texture, and size of the areola. Advanced techniques such as micropigmentation and shading achieve a highly realistic effect that can significantly improve the visual outcome of breast reconstruction.
