Welcome to finding the best approach for Camouflaging your scars.

I know! You have been searching the internet forever trying to make sense of all the offers and solutions for your scars and what to do to minimize them! You asked yourself, should I do laser resurfacing? micro needling? or invest in expensive serums that promise to solve your issue?

To help you find the best option for your type of scar, I created a simple and easy way to identify your scars and the best approach for them.

The first most important point to clarify is, that there is nothing that can remove your scars. We can only make them blend, make them less visible and improve their texture. Also not all scars are alike and all need to be approached individually.

HOW DOES SCAR CAMOUFLAGE WORK?

Scar camouflage involves custom blending, high quality nano particles pigments to match the skin natural melanin, and disguise a scar or skin imperfection, restoring the skin's normal appearance. Scar camouflage conceals imperfections caused by different scars, like acne, surgical scars, hypopigmentation and burns.

After a thorough consultation and assessment of the scar, Dominique will custom blend high quality pigment to precisely match the skin. The custom compound is now ready to be lightly deposited into the scar tissue, to mimic the natural skin color, layering until the perfect color is achieved.

As the skin heals, it will take a few days for the pigment to lighten and become the intended shade. Scar camouflage may take several visits to complete and requires more patience than other treatments.

Clients should be aware that treatments are most effective on areas not exposed to sunlight on a regular basis. The skin surrounding the treated area will change color from UV exposure, but the tattooed skin will not change with it, a sun protection is highly recommended, to be applied every 2 hours to be effective.

AM I A GOOD CANDIDATE FOR SCAR CAMOUFLAGE? LET'S GET STARTED!

What is your scar type?

TYPE 1: ARE YOUR SCARS WHITE LIKE THE EXAMPLE BELOW?

Different white-colored scars shown on the human body.

IF YOU ANSWERED YES TO TYPE 1: You are a great candidate for the Nanocolor Scar Camouflage.

 

TYPE 2: ARE YOUR SCARS, SILVER, BROWN, PINK, RED or PURPLE LIKE THE EXAMPLE BELOW?

Scars that are more silver, brown, pink, red or purple-like.
IF YOU ANSWERED YES TO TYPE 2: You are not a candidate at this time. Your scar are most likely still healing and with time will lighten to a white color. Or they need other treatments to improve the color and texture. Like laser treatment, cortisone injection, or scar revision surgery, you can send us a picture so we can guide you with the best option for your individual need.

Scars must be white and at least 8-12 month old, depending on the severity and how fast you heal it can take longer.

      FAQs:

      CAN NANOCOLOR INFUSION REMOVE MY SCARS?
      To this day, there is nothing available on the market that can completely remove scars, Nanocolor Scar camouflage, can address 2 aspects of the scar, the color and the texture, making them less visible.

      CAN I GET THE TREATMENT WHILE PREGNANT OR BREASTFEEDING?
      Our highest priority is the safety of you and your baby, unfortunately, we are unable to treat you while pregnant or breastfeeding. We look forward to treating you once you are no longer breastfeeding.

      CAN YOU PERFORM NANOCOLOR SCAR CAMOUFLAGE ON ANY SKIN TYPE?
      Not all are candidate, they are many factors such as the skin type, scar color, age, and texture that determine if someone is a good candidate. Your stretch marks and scars need to be at least two years old, lighter than your skin tone and completely healed. Booking a virtual consultation can help determine if you’re a candidate for this procedure and is required for all clients.

      HOW WILL I LOOK IMMEDIATELY AFTER?
      There is little to no downtime for this procedure as most often it can be covered with clothing. Client can go back to work or fly back home. The treated area will look red and raised, this will resume in a few days, you will be sent home with direction on how to treat the area for proper healing and ultimate results. You are allowed to blot our After concealer to conceal redness.

      HOW QUICKLY WILL I SEE RESULTS FROM MY PROCEDURE?
      They are many variables, like age, skin texture, stretch marks depth and type, general health, overtones, sun exposure, etc. and so it’s impossible to give an exact number of days it will take you to heal. On average, it takes 45-60 days, if you have a dark skin tone and dry skin it might take up to 8 weeks. During your consultation, we can discuss and assess your skin’s estimated timeline and variables.

      SCAR CAMOUFLAGE TATTOO VS. LASER TREATMENTS?
      Laser treatment work on Scars that are red and textured, by damaging the skin’s outer layer and forcing it to heal itself. Although they might improve the texture, they do not address the color contrast. Unlike Nanocolor Infusion, it does both, improve the texture and correct the color contrast by restoring the color back into the skin. So almost all clients who get Laser Treatments for their scar still have noticeable white scars. In fact, many of my clients have had many Laser Treatments procedures prior to having Nanocolor Scar Camouflage.
