Specialties
I am a Paramedical Tattoo artist specializing in scar and stretch mark inkless revision and pigment camouflage. Depending on your skin and the severity of the condition, results can show 20% to 80% visible improvement after the first session. Using gentle tattooing techniques I work directly within the delicate scar tissue carefully introducing NUE Conceal medical grade serums, specifically designed to target the damaged tissue. This stimulates collagen and elastin production through controlled micro-injury, signaling the body’s natural healing process to begin repair. While micro needling and CO2 laser stimulate collagen and focus on overall skin rejuvenation, they don’t address scars and stretch marks with the precision that inkless revision does. Once we have reached our goal with improving the texture of the scars we can move into camouflage if needed!
Camouflage tattooing is a specialized technique used to blend and conceal skin imperfections such as scars, stretch marks, vitiligo and other variations in skin tone. Pigment is applied in careful, light layers, allowing us to build toward your ideal result gradually, making adjustments along the way. This layered approach gives you a natural, controlled outcome that can be refined over time. It's like permanent concealer for your scars! For clients with flat, white or lightened scars where texture is no longer the primary concern, camouflage is often the final and most transformative step in the revision process.
History
Established in 2026.
I came into this work through years as a Massage Therapist, Reiki practitioner, Tattoo Artist and through my own understanding that healing runs much deeper than the surface. Those experiences shaped everything about the way I work and the space I hold for people who come to me.
My mission is to help you move beyond the scar and feel truly at home in your skin. It has been my dream to follow a line of work that aligns with my values and artistic talents and I feel truly grateful to be able to do this work with you.
I know that people who find their way here have often been waiting, sometimes for years, to feel ok in their own body again. Whether your marks came from surgery, growth, injury, acne, struggles with mental health, or simply the full weight of a life lived, you deserve the care that honors not just your skin, but the spirit within that carries on.
Meet the Business Owner: Terri L.
My name is Terri and I am the owner and Paramedical Tattooist behind Three Waves. I've spent years working as a massage therapist, Reiki practitioner and tattoo artist, but what brought me here was more personal.
Watching my family members and the people close to me struggle with self-consciousness about their scars after countless surgeries, births, and life's many challenges made me curious about how I could help. That question sent me down a path that eventually brought me here. Now I get to answer that question every day.
I work out of Eden Health & Wellness in St. Albert serving Edmonton and area. I bring the same care and intention to every client who walks through my door. This work isn't just what I do, it's what I feel I'm meant to do. I'm deeply grateful to be able to do it with you.
