STRETCH MARKS
STRETCH MARK CAMOUFLAGE
DESCRIPTION
Stretch marks, whether darker or lighter than your skin tone, can be treated a process very much like traditional tattooing in conjunction with cosmetic tattoo pigments. Your artist will find the correct pigment color to mask your stretch marks and provide healed results that are undetectable.
In some cases cosmetic tattoo pigments may not be necessary, as we may be able to treat your stretch marks with a series of specially formulated serums.
Your artist will assess the areas requiring treatment and provide the best course of action to achieve beautiful healed results.
**PLEASE NOTE: Prior to your artist performing this service, you will be asked to complete a digital medical history and service consent form, and upload a picture of your government issued ID with your date of birth (ID is required for ALL clients receiving this service per New York City Health Department regulations). The digital platform we utilize is HIPPA compliant. No exceptions.

SCARS
SCAR CAMOUFLAGE
DESCRIPTION
Scar Camouflage can be done on almost any area of your body, including the scalp, to reduce the appearance of scar tissue. Through the use of tattoo cartridges and cosmetic tattoo pigments, your artist will match your natural skin tone and work over the scar tissue with the specially designed tattoo machine.
Once the area is completely healed, the area should appear less intense in color and thickness of tissue. Once completely healed, your artist will assess the areas treated to determine when you may need an additional session, as this process can require several sessions to achieve optimal results.

- Pregnant and nursing women.
- Anyone with open sores, psoriasis, or eczema in the area to be worked on.
- Individuals using blood thinners of any kind, especially long term, or those with blood disorders may have difficulty with bleeding and/or bruising and this can affect the healing process. The application of permanent makeup requires implanting color into the skin, and the aforementioned conditions could interfere with depositing the color. You must consult your doctor and provide documentation from your physician stating you are cleared to receive microblading services.
- Diabetics may experience a more difficult time with healing and must obtain written consent from a physician stating your health will not be compromised should you undergo the permanent makeup procedure.

Appointment times will vary and are based on the size of the areas to be treated. You can expect anywhere from 1.5-2 hours for a small area and 2-3 hours for a larger area.
Price is determined by the size of the area(s) to be worked on.
- Your skin may appear red and/or darker than usual for several days post treatment.
- The treated area may also experience color changes as it heals. These changes can appear brown, pink, purple, slightly blue, and even what may seem like a loss of color.
- Your skin may also appear bruised and swollen but this should subside after a few days post procedure.
Results can be permanent but touch ups may be required to refresh the color over time, as health and lifestyle will ultimately determine longevity.
3-5 days before your appointment, gently exfoliate the area to be worked on with a washcloth, loofah, or Luv Scrub and your gentle body wash by using circular motions.
Follow up by applying a gentle body moisturizer (no harsh chemicals) to keep the area soft and supple, as this will prepare your skin for the treatment.
Please DO NOT consume alcohol 24 hours before your appointment and NO caffeine the day of your appointment.
- Do not touch the area/s treated the day of your appointment. We will apply exactly what is needed to your skin to get you through the remainder of your day.
- Starting the very next day and for 7 days post treatment, you will cleanse the skin once daily and apply a thin layer of the skin protectant (we provide you with both) to keep the treated areas moisturized and free of infection.
- Do NOT take steamy, hot showers or use your normal body wash, exfoliating devices or washcloths on the area’s treated.
- Do NOT scratch, pick or peel any scabs to avoid causing infection, scar tissue, and loss of pigment.
We use several different cosmetic tattoo pigment and topical anesthetic brands for our procedures. Should you require a copy of the MSDS, we can provide that to you by request.
