Most clients experience minimal discomfort during paramedical tattooing.  Pain tolerance varies by individual, but our team takes every measure to make you feel as at ease as possible. We don’t like to use numbing creams because they can interfere with the tattooing process and produce unpredictable results.

The duration of each procedure varies depending on the area being treated. For example, areola reconstruction may take about 2-3 hours, while inkless needling and ink camouflage sessions typically last 1-2 hours. During your consultation, we will provide a more accurate estimate based on your specific treatment.

In most cases, 3 to 4 sessions are needed to achieve desired results.  Your artist will discuss this with you during the consultation.

The results of paramedical tattoos can last for several years, though they may fade slightly over time due to factors such as sun exposure and skin care.  tattoo.

For optimal results with paramedical tattooing techniques like ink camouflage or inkless needling, scars typically need to be at least 6 to 12 months old. This allows the scar tissue to fully heal and settle, ensuring that the skin is stable and ready for treatment. Fresh scars may still be in the process of healing and could change in texture or appearance, so it’s best to wait until the scar has matured before undergoing treatment. 

Inkless needling focuses on improving skin texture and healing without pigments, while ink camouflage uses tattooing techniques to conceal imperfections with a pigment that matches your skin color.

Sun exposure can cause the pigments in your tattoo to fade more quickly, resulting in less vibrant or uneven results. To ensure the best results and protect the treated area, it’s recommended to avoid tanning or direct sun exposure for at least 4–6 weeks after your procedure. After that, always use sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher) on the treated areas to prevent fading and damage from UV rays
