Every scar and stretch mark is unique, so treatment plans and pricing are completely individualized. Factors such as the size of the area, skin characteristics, scar or stretch mark maturity, treatment method, and estimated number of sessions all play a role.
For this reason, we do not provide quotes before completing an assessment. Once your intake and photos have been reviewed, you’ll receive a personalized treatment recommendation and pricing based specifically on your needs.

Every treatment plan is completely individualized. During your assessment, we look at factors such as the type of scar or stretch mark, texture, depth, colour, skin tone, treatment area, age of the tissue, and your overall goals.
Your plan may involve one treatment modality or a combination of techniques, depending on what will best address your specific concerns. Because every case presents differently, we do not use a one size fits all protocol.
The number of sessions required will also vary from person to person and will be discussed after your assessment.

The camouflaged area will still look far more blended and natural than it did before treatment. Instead of a stark contrast between the scar/ stretch marks and your natural skin tone, you'll see a softer, more even transition that helps the scar/ stretch marks stay discreet, even when your skin tans.
The pigment is tattooed into the dermis, the second layer of the skin, while tanning only affects the epidermis, the surface layer. This means the tattooed area won't tan the same way, but it will remain neutral and natural looking beneath the skin's changing surface tone.

The initial healing phase takes about 10 days, during which you may experience mild redness, tightness, or slight scabbing as the skin regenerates. This is completely normal.
After that, the skin enters a longer term healing phase where you may see temporary hyperpigmentation (darkening of the treatment area), especially if you have more melanin in your skin.
Initial Phase (0-10 days): You may experience redness, tenderness, mild swelling, and light scabbing or flaking. This is completely normal and part of your skin's natural regeneration process.
Long Term Phase (8 + weeks ): The pigment may appear darker at first and then lighten over time. Some clients experience temporary hyperpigmentation (darkening of the treated area), especially if they have medium to deeper skin tones or a history of post inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH). This usually fades as the skin continues to heal.
