Cool. Amazing what she did to her own face.

This is a nice interview with Basma Hameed about her experience being doused with hot oil as a 2 year old.

We have some threads about tattoos and scars, but I don't think anything like this.

I've seen articles on how women get nipple tattoos if they end up with a mastectomy. It only makes sense to carry that over to other scarring. I wonder if people will start approaching tattoo artists to get this kind of stuff done if news becomes more main stream.

Wow, that's really neat. I wonder if paramedical tattooing would work for facial vitiligo (unpigmented patches). Granted, vitiligo isn't always as noticeable as scarring or burns, but I know lots of people with vitiligo would be thrilled if tattooing became a cover-up option. I remember asking my dermatologist, when I was a kid, if they could just inject pigment into my vitiligo patches.

Actually, she is doing it on vitiligo patches too. You can see some pictures on her website:Basma Hameed Clinic - Services

Tommy Montoya was doing something similar. His instagram is private now but before he marked it private he was tattoo hair on guys that had receding hair lines. Looked like these dudes got a buzz cut and had a little hair growing back.

Pretty dope idea and looked good from the pics.

That is interesting. I was thinking about this because I have alopecia, and I'm missing part of my eyebrow, which looks pretty fucked up. I could use some hair filler.

Marie Sena does this here in Dallas on her days off from the tattoo shop. She has a link to the office she works at from her main website:
