For stable vitiligo, paramedical micropigmentation blends custom skin-tone pigment into white patches — softening the contrast so the area reads even and natural. This is corrective cover-up, performed privately by Huma Arshad, a Canada-certified paramedical micropigmentation practitioner.
Vitiligo camouflage is a paramedical micropigmentation procedure: fine, skin-tone pigment is implanted into the depigmented (white) patches so they blend with the surrounding skin. The goal is a softer, more even appearance — not a medical cure for vitiligo.
It is different from laser or phototherapy, which aim to re-stimulate your own pigment. Camouflage instead adds matched colour to the area, giving a natural-looking result that lasts. For the right candidate, it can dramatically reduce the visible contrast that makes patches stand out.
Because every case is unique, suitability is always confirmed in a consultation first. Camouflage works best on stable vitiligo — patches that have not changed for several months.
White patches that have stayed the same size and shape for several months tend to camouflage most predictably.
Lips, hands, face, and small-to-medium body patches where contrast is most noticeable in daily life.
You want the area to read even and natural — not a perfect erase. Results are refined over more than one session.
We review your skin history and stability, then custom-blend pigment to your exact tone.
A small test confirms colour and skin response before treating the full area.
Precise micropigmentation layers matched colour into the depigmented patch.
The colour settles over a few weeks; a refinement session perfects the blend.
