Skin Camouflage FAQ
What are skin camouflage products?
Camouflage products consist of highly-pigmented, specialised powders and creams which can be applied to minimise the appearance of scars, conditions marks/disfigurements of the skin and the products can be applied to the face and body.
Cosmetic camouflage specialist creams and powders come in an extensive selection of shades and colours so they can be matched to your individual skin tone. A skin colour match appointment with the Cosmetician Jane McPhail, will ensure that the correct colour is selected for you.
Which conditions does cosmetic camouflage help?
Camouflage products are suitable for wide range of conditions such as:
- Scarring, including acne scars and self-harm scarring
- Burns
- Stetchmarks
- Birthmarks
- Hyperpigmentation from Melasma/Chloasma (dark areas of skin)
- Hypopigmentation from Vitiligo (pale areas of skin)
Can camouflage products help the appearance of indented/raised scars?
Camouflage products are ideal for covering an area of skin with a colour that matches the surrounding area. Camouflage products cannot level out a raised area or fill in an indented area of skin and camouflage products cannot improve the texture of skin.
Are cosmetic camouflage creams waterproof?
Cosmetic camouflage products are specially designed to be more-long lasting and waterproof due to a specially formulated finishing powder. Many patients use cosmetic camouflage products when swimming, playing sports and in the shower.
