Right after treatment, your skin may appear pink or red and feel slightly sunburned. There's typically mild swelling that fades by the next day, followed by a brownish tone that lasts 4–6 weeks as the skin enters its healing phase.

Keep the area clean and dry for 2 days; avoid workouts, saunas, pools, and direct sun until healed, typically for 10–14 days.

Discomfort is usually described as minimal—similar to mild microneedling. As you'll see in my service sneak peek video, my client reported the feeling as more of a tickle than pain. 

Texture improvements can show quickly, but skin often stays dark or reddish for several weeks. Final results typically appear after 4–8 weeks.

Inkless stretch mark revision is popular with both men and women, especially those who have experienced weight fluctuation. This service is great for all skin tones and ages.

However, it's not suitable if you’re prone to keloids, have active skin infections, or are in early post-surgery stages.

I'm happy to have a consult with you to determine if you're a good candidate. 

Clients with darker skin types (Fitz II–VI) might experience temporary hyperpigmentation. Pre- and post-care is crucial to reduce this risk.

If I suspect you might be at risk of hyperpigmentation, we'll discuss your options and make sure you feel great about the treatment plan.

Inkless Stretch Mark Revision (ISR) uses a tattoo machine with no pigment—only healing serums like hyaluronic acid or growth factors. The goal is to stimulate collagen production, smooth the texture, and lighten the appearance of stretch marks naturally over time.

Best for:

• All skin tones
• Older or deeper stretch marks
• Clients who want a natural, pigment-free solution
• First-time clients unsure about committing to color

Stretch Mark Camouflage uses a diluted pigment that matches your natural skin tone. It helps blend the color of the stretch marks into surrounding skin, making them less noticeable.

Best for:

• Lighter-toned stretch marks
• Clients with even, stable skin tone
• People seeking visible color correction
• Follow-up to ISR for final blending

ISR is a great treatment option because:

• It stimulates natural collagen and elastin production—supporting long-term texture improvement
• No ink means no risk of pigment-related allergies or complications

During your consultation, we'll discuss which option is best for your skin. 

Most clients need two to three treatments to get the results they desire; some need four.

When we meet for your consult, I'll estimate how many rounds you would need. I believe in being upfront and setting reasonable expectations.

Cost depends on the size of the area you'd like treated, and how many treatment sessions are required to get the results you desire. The cost starts at $400 per area; I'll give you an accurate estimate after our in-person consultation.
