About this listen
In this episode Dr Hilary speaks with Rae Denman, one of the UK’s leading specialists in medical tattooing — a treatment used to camouflage scars, birthmarks and skin grafts, and to restore natural colour after surgery.
Rae talks about how medical tattooing helps people feel more comfortable in their own skin; the difference between cosmetic and medical tattooing; how she works with burns units and post-surgery patients; and why sensitivity and honesty are vital in her work.
Also in the episode:
• The woman who covered her birthmark every day for 30 years
• How a tattoo can restore what surgery can’t
• The link between skin, confidence, and identity
