Will the hyperpigmentation of my scar be forever?

Updated: Nov 2, 2023



Not exactly! After your surgery or an injury you need to be careful and avoid taking sun at all costs, some hyperpigmentation can be superficial, and it will go away after some months. But if it gets deeper, you may need to do a treatment as soon as possible, to remove this excess of melanin and oxidated hemoglobin from the area impacted by it. Go to your doctor and ask for some treatment to prevent the hyperpigmentation to stay. In cases where the hyperpigmentation stabilizes( more than 1 year after the injury) there are not many treatments efficient against it, here is where the camouflage comes up as a solution, and at this point, you can do the camouflage tattoo over it.


Some procedures to lighten scars are not effective enough, because the dark melanin and oxidated hemoglobin can be strong and very persistent as your body doesn't identify it as something that needs to be eliminated, this pigmentation just ends up stuck in between your skin fibers, and the only way to get rid of it despite the camouflage tattoo would be doing a new plastic surgery to remove this skin.



The paramedical tattoo can hide the darker color of your scar with the right pigments. That's why many prefer a less invasive procedure going to a specialist on medical scar camouflage tattoo to cover it and blend with your skin tone.


The Brazilian camouflage tattoo nowadays is considered one of the best solutions to hide your dark scar, is not Invasive, it doesn’t hurt, and the healing process is not long compared to a scar makeover.
