Scars and stretch marks are completely normal, but for some people they can affect confidence or feel more noticeable over time.
Camouflage and skin revision treatments are designed to soften their appearance, helping them blend more naturally with the surrounding skin.
At Turn Beautiful, treatments are tailored to the type of skin concern, whether that’s scar camouflage, inkless revision or stretch mark treatment. The focus is always on achieving a subtle, natural-looking result.

Treatment Techniques
These treatments are carried out using a digital device with fine needles to work within the upper layers of the skin.
For camouflage treatments, pigment is carefully implanted to match the surrounding skin tone and create a more even appearance.
For inkless treatments, the focus is on stimulating the skin to improve texture and encourage natural regeneration.
All techniques are performed using controlled, precise movements to ensure a balanced and natural-looking result.
Scar camouflage
Scar camouflage uses carefully selected pigment to blend the colour of a scar with the surrounding skin.
This technique is most suitable for scars that are lighter than the natural skin tone and have fully healed.
The aim is to reduce contrast and make the area less noticeable.
Inkless scar revision
Inkless scar revision focuses on improving the texture and quality of the skin without adding pigment.
This technique works by stimulating the skin, encouraging a smoother and more even appearance over time.
Stretch mark revision
Stretch mark revision uses similar techniques to improve the appearance of stretch marks by softening texture and reducing contrast.
Treatment is tailored depending on the age, colour and condition of the stretch marks.
About the Treatment
Scar and stretch mark treatments use advanced techniques to improve the appearance of the skin by enhancing tone, texture and overall balance.
Depending on the approach, treatments may involve placing pigment into the skin to blend colour differences, or using an inkless technique to stimulate the skin and improve texture over time.
These treatments are suitable for a range of concerns, including:
-
surgical scars
-
injury scars
-
acne scarring (in some cases)
-
stretch marks
Each treatment is bespoke and adapted to the area being treated and the desired outcome.

These treatments are designed to improve the appearance of scars and stretch marks, not remove them completely. The aim is to soften texture and reduce contrast so the area blends more naturally with the surrounding skin.
Treatment is most suitable for scars and stretch marks that are fully healed and lighter than the surrounding skin. Red, raised or very new scars may need more time before treatment can be considered.
The area must be fully healed before treatment. In many cases, this can take at least 12 months, depending on the type of scar or stretch mark.
This will depend on the condition of the skin. Inkless treatments are often used first to improve texture, while pigment camouflage may be used later to blend colour if needed.
The treated area may appear red, slightly swollen or darker initially. This is part of the normal healing process, and the colour or texture will settle as the skin recovers.
Results can be long-lasting, although this will vary depending on the treatment type, skin and lifestyle factors. Some treatments may require maintenance over time.
Some techniques, particularly inkless treatments, are suitable for all skin tones. Pigment-based treatments will be assessed carefully to ensure a natural match.
