I’m Mary, owner of Smooth Ink Studios. With a background in Travel, Sales, and Learning, my own experience with scar camouflaging inspired me to help others. We offer transformative treatments for scars and stretchmarks and other skin imperfections as well as hair regrowth. I give back by donating treatments to someone who may need it. Thank you for visiting!

What We Offer
At Smooth Ink Studios, we specialise in concealing scars, stretchmarks and other skin imperfections for various conditions with transformative , minimally to non invasive treatments and personalised care to enhance your confidence and heal.
ISR Inkless Stretch Mark & Scar Revision
ISR, or InterStimulatory Regeneration, uses the body’s natural healing abilities to reduce scars and stretch marks. Unlike traditional methods that just treat the surface, ISR boosts collagen and elastin production to promote real tissue regeneration. This leads to smoother, healthier skin that matches your natural tone.
Scar Camouflaging
Smooth Ink Studios blends skin-colored pigments to improve the appearance of scars, burns, stretch marks, skin grafts, and vitiligo. We provide a compassionate, non-judgmental environment to help reduce the appearance of self-harm scars through a personalised treatment plan, ensuring support and understanding throughout the process.
Nue Strand
Wake up dormant follicles and restore hair density with our non-invasive scalp treatment. Powered by biomimetic peptides and antioxidants, NUE Strand stimulates regrowth, improves circulation, and nourishes the scalp — ideal for early-stage thinning, hormonal or stress-related hair loss, and those seeking a natural alternative to transplants. Suitable for both men and women.
Saline Tattoo Removal
Saline tattoo removal is a method used to extract tattoo pigment from the skin using a saline solution (salt and purified water). Unlike traditional tattooing, this process pulls ink out instead of putting it in.

At Smooth Ink Studio, I use Nue Conceal products – a premium, medical-grade line designed for safe and effective results. My training was completed under the guidance of Bianca Festejo, Nue Conceal founder and expert in Paramedical Tattoo.

pricing
our pricing
Unlike traditional services that charge by the hour or a flat rate, our treatments are typically priced based on the area being treated—factoring in the size, type, and complexity of the scar or stretch mark.
For Nue Strand treatments, pricing is primarily determined by the size of the area.
Because every individual and every scar or stretch mark is different, we strongly encourage consultations. This allows us to create a customised treatment plan tailored to your specific goals and expectations.
We offer transparent starting prices and provide discounts for multiple areas or sessions.
