What is Paramedical Tattooing?
Paramedical tattooing involves the careful application of pigment to restore the appearance of the skin. It is commonly used following surgical procedures, injury or conditions that have affected the skin’s natural colour and texture.
These treatments require a high level of skill and precision, as well as an understanding of skin healing and medical considerations.
At Julie Bain Clinical Tattooing, we take a considered approach to each treatment, ensuring that it is suitable, safe and tailored to your individual needs.

Our Process
We take a structured and considered approach to every treatment. Our approach combines technical skill with a genuine understanding of client needs, ensuring a professional and reassuring experience.
Your appointment begins with a detailed consultation. We discuss your goals, assess your features and determine the most suitable treatment.
Shape and colour are carefully mapped out, ensuring you are happy with the plan before proceeding.
A topical anaesthetic is applied to minimise discomfort. The pigment is then applied using precise techniques to create the desired effect.
The process is carried out with care and attention to detail, ensuring a controlled and comfortable experience.
Aftercare advice is provided to support healing and protect your results. Initial colour may appear stronger, softening as the skin heals.
A follow-up appointment may be required to refine the result.
