Scar revision, which helps to flatten and smooth uneven skin after it is completely healed, can be done without surgery using a tattoo needle without pigment. Although it takes place slowly–over weeks and months between visits–the results can be quite an improvement. I am currently working with a young man who was hurt in a serious automobile accident 5 years ago with significant injuries to the left side of his face, and I have seen improvements for clients who have had scarring acne. Watch this website for photos illustrating the process.

New York Times: “Tattoos as Makeup? Read the Fine Print”
By Mary Hunter on July 14, 2011
Thanks to a recent caller who referred to this article from February 2011. It is a well-stated and apt warning for anyone considering permanent makeup, and, I believe, presents a more balanced report than the NPR story. As noted before, I welcome all questions about my materials, my methods, and my qualifications. Please read the About page on this website, which includes references to my training and to my relationship with the medical community and with highly respected, local aesthetic practitioners. I frequently consult with them in the case of skin conditions and scar management, and I have been honored by their continuing referrals.
