DERMINK
Every surgery leaves some degree of scarring, regardless of a surgeon’s skill or attention to detail. You may also have concerns about the appearance of burns, vitiligo, pigmented birthmarks, or other skin imperfections. We understand that visible changes to your skin can have a deeply personal impact, sometimes affecting your confidence and how comfortable you feel in your own skin.
Our goal is to help you feel more confident and comfortable by improving the appearance of areas that may concern you. Through personalised medical dermal pigmentation treatments, we carefully consider your individual skin tone, skin condition, and treatment goals. Our approach is centred on achieving subtle, balanced, and natural-looking results that complement your unique features.
Minimally Invasive Treatments
Our treatments are minimally invasive and designed with your comfort in mind, with little to no downtime in many cases. Each treatment is individually planned to address your specific concerns and may help correct, conceal, or camouflage the appearance of scars, pigmentation irregularities, and other visible skin imperfections.
We take a careful and considered approach, with the aim of creating seamless, natural-looking results that blend harmoniously with your individual skin tone and appearance.
Professional, Personalised Care
Every treatment is performed within a professional medical setting, with a strong focus on safety, hygiene, personalised care, and attention to detail. We understand that every person and every skin concern is different, which is why your treatment is carefully tailored to your individual needs, circumstances, and goals.

Many people live full, confident, meaningful lives with scars, disabilities, or visible differences.
Life happens, scars are inevitable. But we can help to minimise their appearance of unslightly scars or skin pigmentation disorders, rendering them difficult to detect even upon close inspection as part of aesthetic care. Our goal is to make your perceived skin imperfections as unobtrusive as possible, using strategies such as thoughtful patient selection, thorough preoperative preparation, with minimally invasive techniques, little or no downtown and attentive postoperative care.
Hypopigmented Scars (white)
A hypopigmented scar is a type of scar that appears lighter than the surrounding skin because the area has less melanin, the pigment that gives skin its color.
By carefully implanting custom-blended medical grade pigments into your scar, we are able to restore a more natural colour.
Hyerpigmented (darkened) Areas
DermInk treats a wide range of hyperpigmented (darkened) skin areas to help our patients look and feel their best.
We have been in practice over 15 years and have treated thousands of patients using advanced medical dermal pigmentation techniques.
Birthmark Concealment
Birthmarks are natural marks on the skin that are present at birth or develop shortly afterward.
They can vary in color, size, and shape depending on whether they are caused by extra pigment cells or blood vessels.
Cosmetic Surgery Scars
Visible facelift scars can sometimes remain along the hairline or around the ears after surgery, appearing lighter, redder, or more noticeable than the surrounding skin.
We can reduce the tell-tale signs of your facelift.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does medical dermal pigmentation hurt?
The procedure is considered painless by 95% of our patients. We use advanced techniques to ensure your comfort, and there is minimal to no downtime required following a session.
How long do the results last?
Unlike standard makeup or topical creams that wash off, medical dermal pigmentation provides semi-permanent to permanent coverage. The pigments are implanted into the dermal layer, offering long-lasting camouflage that gradually fades naturally over several years.
Am I a suitable candidate?
Most individuals with mature, flat scars (healed for at least 6 to 12 months) are excellent candidates. We offer complimentary consultations for patients of Dr David Chin to thoroughly assess your skin and determine the best treatment plan.
