Medical Tattooing, also known as medical micropigmentation, is a specialist treatment that restores pigment and improves the appearance of skin where colour has been lost due to surgery, trauma, or medical conditions. At Marcia Medical & Cosmetic Clinic, we use advanced techniques and EU pharmaceutical, medical-grade pigments to help clients feel confident and comfortable in their own skin.
What is Medical Tattooing?
Medical tattooing is the process of implanting pigment into the skin to replicate natural colour, tone or definition where it has been lost. Unlike cosmetic tattooing, which focuses on enhancing beauty features, medical tattooing is primarily used to address functional and restorative needs for skin affected by surgery, scars, burns, pigmentation loss, or trauma.
This treatment uses gentle insertion techniques so the pigment sits at an appropriate depth, allowing for colour adjustments and repositioning over time if needed.
