Areola Tattooing and Scar Camouflage

Areola Tattooing and Scar Camouflage is a permanent makeup procedure that creates the appearance of natural-looking areolas after breast reconstruction surgery and helps reduce the visibility of scars. The process uses medical-grade pigments to match your skin tone and add depth, color, and dimension to the treated areas. This treatment can address surgical scars, accident scars, burn marks, and stretch marks on various body parts, including the face, breasts, abdomen, and limbs. The pigments are applied using a specialized device that deposits them beneath the skin’s surface, creating natural results.

Renaissance Med Spa in Salisbury, MD, offers hope to people who want to reduce the appearance of scars or restore their appearance after surgery. Results become visible immediately after treatment, with final results developing over 4-6 weeks as the area heals. The effects can last 3-5 years, depending on your skin type and sun exposure. Call our Salisbury office today to learn more about these treatments, or schedule a consultation at Renaissance Med Spa.
