One of the most common questions I hear is, "How much is it?" But to provide you with a price, we actually have to see the area during a consultation. Let’s dive into why this is necessary and what you can expect.
Do I Really Need a Consultation, or Can I Just Send You a Picture?
It’s nice to see a photo of the area you're looking to treat, as it gives us an idea of the size. However, a consultation is always required. For these treatments, video consultations or in-person consultations are a must.
Why Do You Need to See It?
We need to answer several questions to properly assess the cost of your treatments. Here are the factors contributing to the price:
- Size of the Area and Location: Is it a small cut or surgical scar? Is it a larger area like a tummy tuck scar or your entire thigh?
- Number of Scars/Stretch Marks: Is it a single scar/stretch mark, or are there multiple areas?
- Age of the Scar: Is it still healing or years old?
- Color: Is it lighter or darker than your skin tone, or a combination of both?
- Hyperpigmentation: Are the scars/stretch marks or the surrounding area darker than your skin tone? This means more sessions might be needed.
- Depth: Are they superficial or more concave?
- Texture: Are they smooth or textured?
- Wound Healing Response: Do you scar easily? Do you have a history of keloid scarring?
- Preparation Needs: Will you benefit more from inkless stretch mark/scar revision to reduce size, appearance, and texture before camouflaging?
Generally, procedure costs can range from $150-$1,500 per session, with multiple sessions often required for desired results. This is a treatment that takes time and patience, not a magic procedure that will make them disappear in a single day.
A minimum of 2 sessions is required as you will not benefit from a single session.
Depending on the severity of the stretch marks or scars some individuals may need 2-4 sessions for optimal results.
Because we strive for optimal results, we know our clients will benefit from a 2 session package to jump start your journey. You can simply pay for the treatment you are getting when you are getting them, as needed, or opt for a payment plan - it’s really up to you.
Estimated Prices Per Session
Please note that the number of sessions required and the pricing for scar/stretch mark treatments listed below are estimates. They can vary based on factors such as the size of the treatment area, and the density and severity (color) of the scars/stretch marks. For example, deeper, wider scars or those darker than your natural skin tone may require more sessions using both Ink and Inkless methods compared to lighter and less noticeable ones.

Why So Pricey?
I know you might think, "Wow, that’s pricey." But remember, this is a professional paramedical treatment that will last for years. If you compare it to your regular expenses, you'll be amazed! For example:
- Starbucks 5 times a week: $32.90/week - $1,710.80/year
- Lash extensions every two weeks: $150/session - $3,600/year
- McDonald’s 3 times a week for two people: $75/week - $3,900/year
This isn't a bargain-bin deal. Each session runs about 45min-3+ hours, involving needles and skin penetration. We restock supplies like gloves, ink, oils, serums, needles, numbing agents, and more for each visit. Plus, there's rent for our space, software, and utilities. Every session comes with its fair share of costs.
