Birthmark camouflage
Commonly treated
- Port wine stains
- Mongolian birthmarks
- Café-au-lait marks
- Areas left uneven after laser
Port wine stains, Mongolian birthmarks and other birthmarks are part of you, but you get to decide how much they show. Camouflage and pigment neutralisation build an even, natural tone, layered gently over a series of sessions.
For flat, settled birthmarks, we blend custom pigment matched to your surrounding skin, building coverage in thin layers so the result looks natural rather than painted on. Blue-grey marks, such as Mongolian birthmarks, are softened with pigment neutralisation.
Not every birthmark is suited to tattooing. Raised, thickened or changing areas need to be checked by your GP or dermatologist first, and we’ll always assess suitability honestly at your consultation.
Before you book
Pricing, sessions, healing and who this suits. Every plan is confirmed at your complimentary consultation, with no obligation.
Pricing
$300 to $699 per area, depending on the size of the birthmark and the depth of colour. Your quote is confirmed at your complimentary consultation.
Sessions
Most birthmarks need several layered sessions, spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart, to build an even, natural tone. As a guide, the Mongolian birthmark shown here took four sessions of pigment neutralisation.
Healing & downtime
Expect initial healing over one to two weeks, with light flaking as the skin settles. Colour continues to settle over the following four to six weeks.
Contraindications
We may need to wait, adjust your plan or ask for medical clearance if you:
- are pregnant or breastfeeding
- are having chemotherapy or radiation, or have recently finished
- have an active skin infection, rash, cold sore or open wound in the area
- have a scar that is still red, raised or less than about 12 months old
- have a history of keloid scarring
- have a bleeding disorder, take blood thinners, or have uncontrolled diabetes
Is this right for me?
Book a complimentary consultationWe work on flat, stable birthmarks only. If an area is raised, thickened or has changed recently, please have it checked by your GP or dermatologist first. Camouflage can also help even out areas left patchy after laser treatment, once fully healed.
