ARE YOU A CANDIDATE?
STRETCH MARKS
Good Candidate:
Stretch mark concealment is ideal for fully healed stretch marks at least 2 years old that are lighter than the surrounding skin.
Not a Good Candidate:
Fresh, unhealed stretch marks that are red, pink or even purple. They are still new and healing; can possibly turn white in the future....wait until they heal and schedule a consultation.
Hyper-pigmented scars cannot be camouflaged with skin color ink.
Fraxel laser treated stretch marks - lasers tend to turn stretch marks grey, which effects the overall pigment selected.
Too light; there is not enough of a contrast between the stretch marks and the surrounding skin. The stretch marks need to be lighter than the surrounding skin.
SCARS
Good Candidate:
Scars that are minimum of one year old and healed. Most scars can be softened through softening procedures followed by micropigmentation.
Not a Good Candidate:
Pink, unhealed scars. Keloid scars cannot be treated. Past Fraxel laser treatments.
BURNS
Good Candidate:
Fully healed small burns no greater than five inches across. Enough contrast for camouflage, mostly flat surface and different pigmentation than the surrounding skin.
Not a Good Candidate:
Pink, unhealed burns.
