Inkless Scar & Stretch Mark Revision is a cosmetic procedure aimed at minimizing the look of scars and stretch marks and improving their appearance without the use of pigmented inks.

 

This treatment is typically performed on scars that are raised, sunken, discolored, or aesthetically displeasing due to various factors.

This non – invasive procedure works by stimulating the skin’s natural healing response, promoting collagen production, and encouraging the regeneration of healthy skin cells. The goal of Inkless Scar & Stretch Mark Revision is not to remove the scar or stretch mark entirely but to diminish its visibility and blend it with the surrounding skin. 

How does it work?

  • The needling process helps to improve the texture and tone of the skin, leading to a reduction in the visibility of scars and stretch marks over time. Since it involves no pigmented inks, there is no risk of discoloration or pigment migration, making it a safe option for individuals with various skin types and tones.
  • Inkless Scar & Stretch Mark Revision typically requires multiple treatment sessions spaced several weeks apart to achieve optimal results. While individual outcomes may vary, many clients experience significant improvement in the appearance of their scars and stretch marks, with smoother and more even-toned skin.
  • Overall, Inkless Scar & Stretch Mark Revision offers a non-invasive and effective solution for those looking to address their scars and stretch marks and enhance the appearance of their skin

What to expect

  • A new production of collagen and elastin is triggered by your body’s natural healing process which helps new and healthier scar tissue to grow.
  • The new scar tissue will appear smoother and the color tone will gradually even out and normalize after each session.
  • Stiffer scars and stretch marks will loosen up and become less restricted.
  • Scars that are bumpy with a raised texture can also start smoothening and flattening down.

What does ISR feel like? Does it hurt?

Pain varies on the individual, the area we are treating, and other contributing factors such as menstrual cycle, sleep deprivation, stress levels, caffeine intake, etc. however most clients describe it as “not” painful at all.  We will use a topical numbing cream before and/or during your treatment to minimize any discomfort.
