FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
STRETCH MARK/SCAR CAMO-
What is a Stretch mark Camouflage Tattoo?
A stretch mark camouflage tattoo is a cosmetic tattooing technique that uses custom-blended pigment to match your natural skin tone. It works by blending stretch marks into the surrounding skin, making them appear virtually invisible. Invisimark offers expert pigment matching for all Fitzpatrick skin types therefore all skin tones are welcomed. However, we require the stretch mark or scar to be over 2 years old, white in color & flat in texture.
What’s the Difference Between Inkless treatment and Camouflage Tattooing?
At Proper Aetshetics we offer two highly effective solutions to reduce the appearance of stretch marks, Inkless Treatment and Camouflage Tattooing; each designed for different skin needs.
Inkless Treatment uses no pigment or ink. Instead, we apply a specialized blend of skin-repairing serums and vitamins that stimulate natural collagen and elastin production. This helps fade stretch marks by improving skin texture and melanin from within.
Camouflage Tattooing involves implanting custom-blended pigment into the skin to match your natural skin tone. This technique conceals stretch marks by blending them into the surrounding skin, offering flawless coverage.
In short:
Inkless fades stretch marks naturally by triggering the body’s healing process.
Camouflage conceals them by matching your skin tone with pigment.

How many sessions will I need for Camouflage Tattoo?
Most clients see a significant improvement after just one session of camouflage tattooing. However, depending on your skin type, stretch mark depth, and how well your skin retains pigment, you may need 1 to 3 sessions for optimal results.
We typically space sessions 6 to 8 weeks apart to allow for full healing and pigment settling. During your consultation, we’ll assess your skin and give you a personalized treatment plan.
How Many Sessions Will I Need for the Inkless treatment?

Sessions are typically spaced 6 to 8 weeks apart to allow the skin time to heal, rebuild collagen, and reveal full results.
OMBRE BROWS (PERMANENT MAKEUP
What are Ombre Powder Brows?
Ombre Powder Brows are a semi-permanent cosmetic tattoo designed to create the appearance of soft, fuller, and more defined brows. Using a machine and custom-selected pigment, tiny pixels are layered into the skin to create a powder-filled makeup effect with a soft gradient—lighter at the front and more defined toward the tail. Unlike traditional tattooing, the results are designed to heal into a natural-looking finish that complements your facial features.
How long do Ombre Powder Brows last?
Ombre Powder Brows typically last 2–3 years, depending on your skin type, lifestyle, sun exposure, skincare routine, and aftercare. To maintain the best color and shape, most clients choose a color refresh every 12–24 months.
Does the procedure hurt?
Your comfort is our priority. A topical numbing cream is applied before and throughout the procedure to help minimize discomfort. Most clients describe the sensation as light scratching or pressure rather than pain.
How long is the healing process?
Initial healing typically takes 7–14 days, while the brows continue to soften and fully heal over 4–6 weeks. During healing, it's normal for the brows to appear darker before gradually lightening to their final color. A perfecting touch-up is recommended 6–8 weeks after your initial appointment to refine the results.
BROW LAMINATION
What is Brow Lamination?
Brow Lamination is a non-invasive treatment that restructures and smooths the natural brow hairs into your desired shape, creating the appearance of fuller, more defined brows. The treatment helps tame unruly hairs, improve symmetry, and allows the brows to be styled with ease for a polished, lifted look.
How long does Brow Lamination last?
Results typically last 6–8 weeks, depending on your natural hair growth cycle, aftercare, and lifestyle. As new brow hairs grow in, the laminated effect will gradually fade.
Is Brow Lamination safe?
Yes! Brow Lamination is a safe and popular treatment for most clients. If you're pregnant or breastfeeding, we recommend speaking with your healthcare provider before booking. Because everyone's body is different, hormonal changes may affect how well your brows hold the treatment. If you're unsure whether Brow Lamination is right for you, we're happy to answer any questions during your consultation.
HYBRID BROWS-
What is a Hybrid Brow Wax & Tint?
A Hybrid Brow Wax & Tint combines precision brow shaping with a long-lasting hybrid tint to create fuller, more defined brows. The tint stains both the brow hairs and the skin, giving the appearance of added density while enhancing your natural shape.
How long does a Hybrid Brow Tint last?
Results vary from person to person, but the tint typically lasts up to 10-15 days on the skin and up to 5 weeks on the brow hairs, depending on your skin type, skincare routine, and aftercare.
How should I care for my brows after my appointment?
To help your results last as long as possible, avoid getting your brows wet, using exfoliants, or applying oil-based skincare products to the brow area for the first 24 hours. After that, gentle cleansing and avoiding excessive rubbing will help extend the life of your tint.
INKLESS STRETCH MARK REVISION
What is Inkless Stretch Mark Revision?
Inkless Stretch Mark Revision is a non-pigment treatment designed to improve the appearance of stretch marks without using tattoo ink or pigment.
Using a specialized needling technique, the skin is gently stimulated to encourage its natural healing response and support the production of collagen and elastin within the treated area. This process can help improve the texture, tone, and overall appearance of stretch marks over time.
Unlike camouflage tattooing, Inkless does not add color to the skin. Instead, the goal is to naturally stimulate the skin so the stretch marks can become less noticeable and blend more seamlessly with the surrounding skin.
Results develop gradually as the skin goes through its natural remodeling process. Individual results vary depending on the age, color, depth, and texture of the stretch marks, as well as each person's healing response..
How Many Sessions Will I Need ?
One of the biggest benefits of Inkless Stretch Mark Revision is that the skin begins its remodeling process after the very first treatment.
However, because Inkless works by stimulating your body's natural healing and collagen-building process, results develop gradually rather than appearing immediately.
The number of treatments recommended will depend on the age, depth, texture, and overall condition of your stretch marks. Some clients may see noticeable improvement after one session, while others may benefit from a series of treatments for more significant results.
Your Artist will evaluate your skin and recommend the treatment plan that is best suited for you.
What Happens When You Tan After Inkless/ Camouflage Treatment?
One of the advantages of Inkless or Camp Stretch Mark Revision is that there is no pigment placed into the skin.
With traditional camouflage tattooing, pigment is used to match the surrounding skin tone, which can create challenges when your natural skin tone changes with tanning.
Inkless takes a different approach.
Because no artificial pigment is deposited into the skin, your skin can continue to naturally change with your body's normal tanning process. As the treated stretch marks improve in appearance, the goal is for them to look more naturally blended with the surrounding skin.
Keep in mind that tanning can still make stretch marks more noticeable, especially if the surrounding skin becomes significantly darker. For the healthiest healing and best long-term results, protecting your treated skin from excessive sun exposure is always recommended.
KOREAN LASH LIFT
What Is a Korean Lash Lift?
A Korean Lash Lift is an advanced lash-lifting technique designed to create beautifully lifted, curled, and defined natural lashes without the use of extensions.
The Korean Lash Lift technique focuses on creating a soft, clean, and long-lasting curl while prioritizing the health and condition of your natural lashes. The result is a more open, lifted appearance that enhances your eyes while maintaining a natural look.
How Is a Korean Lash Lift Different From a Traditional Lash Lift?
Korean Lash Lifts are known for their gentle, precise approach and customized results. The technique allows your Artist to tailor the lift based on your natural lash length, direction, thickness, and desired result.
Rather than creating a one-size-fits-all curl, the goal is to create a flattering lift that complements your eye shape and enhances your natural lashes.
How Long Does a Korean Lash Lift Last?
A Korean Lash Lift typically lasts approximately 6–8 weeks, depending on your natural lash growth cycle, aftercare, and the condition of your lashes.
As your natural lashes grow and shed, the lift will gradually fade and your lashes will return to their natural appearance.
How Long Does the Appointment Take?
Your Korean Lash Lift appointment typically takes approximately 60–75 minutes, depending on your natural lashes and the services included.
We recommend arriving with clean lashes and avoiding eye makeup prior to your appointment whenever possible.
Can I Get a Korean Lash Lift If I Have Short or Straight Lashes?
Yes! A Korean Lash Lift can be customized for a variety of natural lash types, including short, straight, downward-growing, or difficult-to-curl lashes.
During your appointment, your Artist will assess your natural lashes and select a technique that works with your lash length, direction, and desired result.
Who Is Not a Candidate for a Korean Lash Lift?
A Korean Lash Lift may not be recommended for individuals with certain eye conditions, active eye irritation or infection, severely damaged lashes, or sensitivities that could make the service unsuitable.
If you have concerns about your eyes or lashes, please contact us before booking so we can determine whether the service is appropriate for you.
