A method of treating stretch mark scars with a serum prior to, and perhaps instead of,  camouflage tattooing. The medical grade serum is placed on the skin while or after needling with a rotary tattoo machine. The serum combined with the needling triggers the body's natural healing response to make the stretch mark less noticeable.

Yes, most machine experienced PMUs/tattoo artists will have most of the supplies and the serum is available in most countries around the world.

Tattooing is the placement of pigment or ink in an area of concern to blend it with the appearance of the surrounding skin. ISR is closest to tattooing as you are using a rotary tattoo machine - more powerful than a microneedling machine - however instead of injecting ink you are placing healing serum on the treatment area.

Jody has students in most States and Countries around the world. This procedure usually falls under tattoo or body art licensing so if you’re currently licensed you should be able to add this service with ease. Since regulations vary by state it is up to the student to ensure they understand the requirements in their location. The great thing about the serum recommended is that it’s manufactured for the indented purpose of stretch marks revision which is a requirement in some jurisdictions.

People use the term microneedling to include many things, Jody considers microneedling to be a technique using a smaller needle, like a Dr. Pen or other a dermaroller, and is intended to cause damage to the skin which triggers your body’s natural healing response as a way to revise areas of concern - no healing serum is added after needling.

As long as you are a PMU or body art tattooer with about 1 year of experience you will understand the concepts in this course. If you have less than a year of experience you will require more time to gain experience with models or friends and family prior to perfecting your skills for paying clients.
