Skin Colour Reconstruction or also known as skin camouflage, corrective pigment camouflage is non-invasive treatment done by PMU specialists that involves the insertion of a pigment, designed for medical camouflage and matched to the color of the surrounding healthy skin. Thus, the final color of the treated area optimally matches the color of the surrounding tissues. This makes it possible to conceal scars, stretch marks, obesity strokes & vitiligo making them stand out less on the background of the skin and also eliminate pigment spots and even out the skin tone. This can help people with scars move on from past trauma, be comfortable in their own skin and regain back their self-confidence.
