What Is Skin Graft Tattoo Camouflage?
Skin grafts, while life-saving and transformative, can sometimes leave behind areas of skin that don't quite match the surrounding tissue in colour or texture. Enter the realm of Skin Grafts Camouflage Tattooing - a meticulous technique designed to blend and harmonize these areas, making them less noticeable.
Often referred to as Medical Tattooing for Skin Grafts, this procedure involves the precise application of custom-matched pigments to the grafted skin. By carefully blending the tattooed area with the surrounding natural skin tone, it offers a more uniform and cohesive appearance.

Understand Your Treatment Plan
How many sessions are required for skin graft medical tattooing?
Typically 2 sessions are required however if there is scarring, you may require an additional session, either to treat scarring prior to tattooing, through microneedling, or an additional tattooing session due to pigment potentially not retaining in heavily scarred areas. All treatments will require future touch-ups when pigment starts to fade.
Is the skin graft tattooing procedure painful?
Some clients feel no sensation at all, others feel mild discomfort. Topical numbing is used to control discomfort if required. Clients say that having a procedure is comparable to having their eyebrows tweezered or their legs waxed.
How long does the tattooing typically last?
Medical tattooing can last several years, but factors like sun exposure, lifestyle, skin type and skin regeneration can affect longevity. Periodic touch-ups will be necessary.
What is the aftercare process for skin graft camouflage tattooing?
After treatment, you may experience some swelling/redness for up to 48 hours after your procedure. During the healing process, you will experience some scabbing of the area. It is vital that you try to keep the area as dry as possible during the healing process. We recommend you do not swim, sunbathe or use a sauna/jacuzzi for 2 weeks after the procedure.
