Skin Camouflage
is available for anyone
coping with scarring or a disfiguring skin condition. |
The British Association of Skin
Camouflage states
"The reasons for needing camouflage
are individual and various; those seeking help include men, women and
children. Some, with congenital disorders may be born with the condition
apparent, whilst with others the dermatosis will present at a later stage –
and that is usually when it is least welcomed, particularly during puberty.
Scarring can be the result of surgical procedures, accident, acts of
violence and self-injury. Unwanted tattoos and excessive facial “flushing
and blushing” are other reasons for requesting skin camouflage".
It is recommended that anyone wishing to
use skin camouflage products seeks medical advice. If you feel you are in need
of help from skin camouflage speak to your Dermatologist or Plastic Surgeon.
Arrangements can be made for you to see a skin camouflage specialist who will be
able to select the best colour match for your skin tone and teach you how to
apply the creams to improve the affected areas of your skin.
