What is Paramedical Tattooing?

Paramedical tattooing is a specialized technique that uses medical-grade serums and skin toned pigments to restore the appearance of skin after surgery, injury, or other changes. Unlike traditional tattooing, it’s designed to blend naturally rather than stand out.

At Luxe Lashes, we prioritize skin health first. Treatments often begin with inkless therapies to improve texture and stimulate natural healing. Pigment is only applied when necessary—after the skin has healed and when additional camouflage or colour restoration is desired.

Each treatment begins with a in depth consultation and assessment to understand your goals, skin condition, and healing history.

1. Inkless Restoration: Paramedical tattooing for surgical and injury scars and stretch marks, we use advanced serums and techniques to promote collagen and elastin production, soften texture, and rejuvenate the skin naturally. Specialized medical grade serums are used for hair growth support treatments. All treatments are applied with a micro needling technique tailored to the treatment area.
2. Camouflage Pigment (if needed): After inkless treatments, subtle pigments may be applied to blend areas where colour or symmetry has been affected. Pigments are carefully matched to your skin tone for seamless results.
3. Follow-up & Touch-ups: Healing and pigment retention varies by individual. Follow-up sessions are available to ensure optimal, long-lasting results. Multiple sessions are needed for scars, stretchmarks and hair growth treatments.

Paramedical tattooing and restorative treatments are ideal for anyone looking to improve the appearance of:

• Surgical scars: Including tummy tucks, breast surgery, facelifts, and other procedures.
• Injury or trauma scars: From accidents, burns, or stitches.
• Stretch marks: On the abdomen, breasts, hips, thighs, or arms.
• Pigment loss or hypo-pigmentation: From burns, scars, or natural skin changes.
• Areola restoration: Post-mastectomy, breast reconstruction, or natural fading.
• Hairline & scalp concerns: Scars, thinning, or early-stage hair loss. Hair Growth Support Treatments for men and women, designed to stimulate the scalp, strengthen follicles, and encourage fuller, healthier-looking hair.

Comfort is a priority at Luxe Lashes Aurora. Most clients describe paramedical tattooing and restorative treatments as mildly uncomfortable rather than painful. Sensations are often compared to gentle pricking, light scratching, or a slight buzzing.

For inkless treatments, the process is generally very comfortable, as we use specialized serums and techniques that focus on healing and collagen stimulation rather than penetrating deeply into the skin. The treatment are will often determine the level of discomfort. Areas near bone such as scalp will be a bit more sensitive than areas on the body with more cushioning such as the abdomen.

Everyone’s pain tolerance is different, but we work closely with you throughout the session to ensure you feel comfortable, safe, and informed. Our goal is always natural, beautiful results without unnecessary discomfort.

With proper care, results can last 2–5 years, depending on your skin type, area treated, and lifestyle factors like sun exposure. Many clients enjoy long-lasting improvements in skin texture and colour, with touch-ups available to refresh or maintain the results over time.
