Medical EnhancementsHelping People With Medical Complaints Or Conditions - one of Karen’s key goals is to spread the message about what permanent cosmetics can achieve for people with medical complaints or conditions.
Many private health insurance companies now recognise the benefits of permanent cosmetics in helping people with medical conditions to recover psychologically as well as physically. The following sections outline some of the main areas where she can achieve amazing results. Vitiligo
 This pigmentation disorder is caused by an absence of melanin in the skin. We can disguise the white patches and even out a client's skin tone. The process works particularly well on the lip area and especially on darker skins. Cleft Lip
 There are various stages in disguising a cleft lip to recreate natural looking lips. Step one is to use MCA techniques (see below) to soften and relax the scar tissue. Next, we create a new, more symmetrical lip line and fill in with a natural lip colour that’s suitable for the client’s skin tone. Forcyde Lips
 Poor blood supply can cause discolouration of the lips as the glands lose their pigmentation and turn white. We will reintroduce pigment to the skin’s reticular layer to even out the lip colour and reinstate the lip shape. Scar Relaxation & Scar Camouflage
 Micro pigmentation procedures have the benefit of improving the look of scarring by breaking down the taut scar tissue and creating a more even-textured surface.
Advanced micro pigmentation techniques can diminish and disguise scars from either surgery or injury. We custom blend pigments that harmonise with the surrounding tissue and then implant them to make the scar less noticeable and reduce its contrasting, shiny appearance. It is important to have a realistic expectation when undergoing this procedure and there are considerations for Asian and darker skinned clients. Our team will be able to give you more information. Burns Burns are similar to scars in that the surface of the skin shrinks to give a tight, stretched appearance and is usually discoloured. Our techniques soften burns as we use micro pigmentation to blend the area in with the surrounding skin. Multitrepannic Collagen Actuation (MCA)
 This is a dry needling technique to help relax the white raised or stretched surface texture of burns and scars caused by an excess of sub surface collagen. The MCA techniques that we carry out break this layer down and activate the body’s self cleansing system to stimulate the re-growth of healthy collagen. The same procedure can also be used to reduce wrinkles! Scalp Hair Simulation Although this is not an answer to balding, we offer scalp hair stimulation techniques for small areas of hair loss, for example on scar tissue or to help camouflage donor areas following hair transplant operations.  |
