WHAT IS CAMOUFLAGE TATTOOING?
Camouflage Tattooing (also known as skin colour tattooing or scar camouflage) is a non-surgical medical tattooing technique that implants custom-blended pigments into the upper layers of the skin.
These pigments are matched to your natural skin tone to reduce the visibility of scars or stretch marks, making them appear:
✔ Softer
✔ Flatter
✔ More blended
✔ Less noticeable in everyday life
It does not remove scars — but it can dramatically reduce how visible they look.
