Scar Camouflage Tattoo

scar camouflage tattoo

Scar Camouflage Tattooing, or Corrective Pigment Camouflage (CPC), is a non-invasive treatment to conceal scars and skin imperfections. Blend scars with your skin tone for a seamless, lasting effect, perfect for covering scars on the face, hands, abdomen, or any body area.

How it works:
Using precise micropigmentation, pigment is implanted into scar tissue to mimic the surrounding skin tone, creating a virtually invisible camouflage. This safe and effective method improves scars with uneven color or tone.

Prices Vary Depending On Size

Scar 2-4 inches: $350
Scar 4-8 inches: $650
Scar 8-14 inches: $850

Camouflage Patch Test: $80

Inkless Stretchmark Revision

stretchmark revision

Inkless Stretchmark Revision is a treatment that revitalizes the skin by targeting stretchmarks through advanced microneedling techniques. This technique enhances collagen and elastin production, promoting natural skin renewal without pigments for a smoother, more natural look.

How it works:
Using fine needles and a customized serum blend we target each stretchmark individually, stimulating healing, softening texture, and reducing the visibility of red, purple, or white stretchmarks.

Prices Vary Depending On Size

Small area: $250
Large area: $300
XL area: $350

Camouflage Patch Test: $80

Scar Resurfacing

trigger point massage

Scar Resurfacing improves scar texture by flattening raised areas and filling indented regions. It’s an ideal preparatory step for Scar Camouflage, enhancing pigment retention and creating a smoother, more uniform skin surface for optimal results. 

 

How it works:
The procedure uses fine needles to gently puncture scar tissue, stimulating collagen and elastin production to repair and soften scars, making them less prominent.

Prices Vary Depending On Size

Scar 2-4 inches: $350
Scar 4-8 inches: $650
Scar 8-14 inches: $850

In November 2024 I started my Lymphatic Therapy due to a medical procedure. The staff at Carolina Pinto is very professional and caring. You feel welcome as soon as you walk in. The owner: Mrs Carolina introduced herself to me and let me know she was there to answer any questions I may have. My Therapist Jasmin displays great concern also about my care. She is an awesome massage therapist, and make me look forward to my visits. Thanks to everyone at Carolina Pinto Massage.

I had my first post partum massage here and this place was so gorgeous and chic! However, I was not a fan of my massage therapist. She was not welcoming, friendly or made me feel relaxed at all. She massaged me with gloves on for the entire 2 hours and used so much pressure that I was sore for the next 2 days. I understand that she needed to use more pressure than usual since I was recommended a deep tissue massage by Carolina but I wish the massage therapist had told me beforehand of what to expect. Also, if a client flinches or says she’s in pain during the session, I would expect them to at least acknowledge it. I would have loved for her to explain what was going on with my body but she was pretty much silent the entire session. I did not like her bedside manners at all and I expected a better service for the price I paid for.The initial consultation with Carolina was great. She assesses your pain and recommends different massages to relieve it. She’s a PT so she has the credentials and is very knowledgeable in her field. I appreciate that she is also mother and was able to relate to her clients.

I came to Carolina Pintos therapy with aches and pains all over my body! I told Verlene all my issues and she immediately began to work her magic!! She truly has the magic touch! I left this place feeling refreshed and pain free. I was so happy and impressed that I scheduled another appointment for next month! Verlene is the BEST ❤️

I was referred to Carolina by my surgeons office…i had a tummy tuck, lipo, and fat transfer. I was able to get an appointment for a massage 8 days after my surgery and it was a game changer. That whole first week after surgery i was so swollen and uncomfortable and I wasn’t even able to fit into the faja provided to me by my doctor because of my swelling, but one session at Carolina’s and I was a new woman!! Just from my first session I was able to feel so much relief around my stomach and back area and the next day was able to fit into my faja!!! Carolina and her staff are amazing and know exactly what they’re doing. They took care of me from the moment i stepped into the office. The lymphatic massage helped my swelling go down on the first session so after that I was hooked and knew I needed to come back for more to help me on this journey. Carolina also provided me with good tips on staying hydrated and getting lots of protein in my diet…she truly cares about her patients recovery and it shows!!!! Thank you so much Carolina and staff. I could not survive this post op journey without you!!!

I booked after seeing a social media Ad and a little more research. I booked a lymphatic massage given my needs, however, they have several other options. I had two different massage therapists and both have been great! So far, I've booked a few more sessions with Patty and she is always so kind and welcoming. Patty always asks about any concerns or problem areas that need attention and makes the experience so calming & relaxing. I have booked more sessions and am looking forward to continued results.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: What is the downtime after these treatments?

A: There is minimal to no downtime for these services. You may experience slight redness or tenderness, which typically resolves within a day or two.

Q: Are the results permanent?

A: Scar Camouflage results can last several years, depending on your skin type, sun exposure, and aftercare. Inkless Stretchmark Revision and Scar Resurfacing results improve gradually as collagen production continues and are long-lasting with proper skin care.

Q: Do the treatments hurt?

A: Most clients report mild discomfort during the procedure, which is often compared to a light scratching sensation. We use numbing creams to ensure maximum comfort.

Q: What are some requirements and recommendations before my treatment?

A: Before your treatment you must:

  • Avoid Sun Exposure: Stay out of direct sunlight or tanning beds for at least 2 weeks before treatment.
  • Discontinue Exfoliants: Stop using retinoids, acids, or exfoliants on the area 7–10 days prior.
  • Avoid Blood Thinners: Refrain from alcohol, aspirin, ibuprofen, and certain supplements 72 hours before treatment.
  • Scars Must Be Healed: Only mature scars (over 12 months old) are eligible for treatment.
  • Clean Skin: Ensure the area is clean and free of lotions, makeup, or oils on the day of your appointment.
Q: What are some requirements and recommendations after my treatment?

A: After your treatment you must:

  • Keep It Clean: Gently wash with mild soap and water. Avoid touching or scratching the treated area.
  • Apply Ointment: Use a thin layer of a recommended unscented ointment to keep the area moisturized.
  • Avoid Submersion: No swimming, saunas, or baths for 7–10 days. Showers are fine.
  • Sun Protection: Apply SPF 30+ after healing to protect against pigment fading. Avoid direct sunlight and tanning beds for 4 weeks.
  • Expect Healing Changes: Scabbing, flaking, and pigment lightening are normal. Do not pick at the area.
Q: Can I get these treatments while pregnant or breastfeeding?

A: No. We recommend waiting until after pregnancy or breastfeeding to ensure safety and optimal results.

Q: How many sessions will I need?

A: Most clients see significant results after one session, but some scars or stretchmarks may require additional treatments for the best outcome.

Q: Is there a risk of hyperpigmentation or scarring?

A: When performed by a trained professional, these treatments are safe with minimal risks. However, clients prone to keloids or excessive scarring are not ideal candidates.
