Scar & Stretch Mark Camouflage
Your Skin, Restored. Wear What You Want With Confidence.
Scars and Stretch marks blended seamlessly with your skin
What Is It?
Camouflage tattooing is a specialized paramedical procedure that blends scars and stretch marks into the surrounding skin using custom mixed flesh toned pigments. Unlike traditional tattooing, the goal of scar and stretch marks camouflage is to make the area less visible rather than to decorate it. At our Fair Oaks studio, we focus on restoring your skin’s natural appearance.
How Does It Work?
Using expert color matching techniques, each client’s pigment is custom-blended to their exact skin tone and implanted just below the surface. This allows the light to reflect off of the pigment, creating a seamless, natural-looking result.

Frequently Asked Questions
Am I a Candidate for Camouflage Tattooing?
For the best results, scars must be fully healed (usually 12–24 months old), lighter than the surrounding skin, and not significantly raised or red. Stretch marks should be white or silvery and softened. Inkless Stretch Mark Revision may be an option for scars or stretch marks not immediately eligible for camouflage. Camouflage works on a variety of scars including surgical scars, scars from trauma, and self harm scars. During your consultation in our Fair Oaks studio, we will do a detailed assessment of your skin to ensure this is the safest path for you.
How Long Does It Take To Heal?
Typical healing time is 8–12 weeks to allow the pigment to fully settle. This period enables us to assess how well your skin retains the pigment and determines if any adjustments are needed to your custom formula.
How Many Sessions Will I Need?
Visible results can be seen after the first session . However, most people typically require 2–3 sessions to achieve full, restorative results.
Does It Hurt?
The process is generally well-tolerated and often described as a "mild sunburn" sensation. We check in with you throughout the process. Numbing options are available to ensure you remain comfortable.
Is It Permanent?
While considered permanent, results can fade over time due to a number of factors. Sun exposure, sun protection, how you care for your skin, and all play a role in how long the pigment will last. Touch ups are recommended around 3-5 years to maintain your results.
