WE SEE YOU AND WE KNOW THE STRUGGLE
Getting Your Confidence Back Shouldn’t Feel Impossible
Living with scars, pigment changes, or post-surgery changes can quietly affect how you see yourself every day. You may have tried treatments that promised results but felt rushed, generic, or just didn’t deliver what you hoped for.
You’re not looking for perfection — you just want to feel comfortable in your own skin again. At Cosmedic Ink, we work with care, patience, and intention, because healing and confidence don’t come from quick fixes — they come from being truly seen and treated as an individual.
You Didn't Choose the Change. You Get to Choose What Comes Next.
At Cosmedic Ink, our work starts with listening. We understand that concerns like scars, pigment changes, or post-surgical changes aren’t just about appearance — they affect how you feel in your body every day. That’s why every treatment we offer is personalized, thoughtful, and never rushed.
Our medical and cosmetic tattooing services are designed to restore balance and confidence in a natural, realistic way. Whether it’s scar camouflage, 3D areola restoration, or premier makeup, we combine medical precision with artistry to create results that look and feel right for you. Nothing cookie-cutter. Nothing overdone.
This is a space for healing, comfort, and care — where your story matters and your treatment is tailored to support it. Here, transformation isn’t about changing who you are. It’s about helping you feel comfortable, confident, and whole again in your own skin.
Take the first step today — your journey back to confidence starts here.

PMU BROWS
Designed to enhance your natural features with precision and balance, our brow services are fully customized to your face, skin type, and lifestyle. We offer Powder Brows for a soft, makeup-like finish, Nano Brows for ultra-fine, hair-like strokes, Combo Brows for added depth and dimension, and Microblading for natural definition. Every set is thoughtfully crafted to look effortless, realistic, and timeless.
PMU LIPS
Our lip treatments are designed to enhance your natural lip tone, shape, and symmetry while keeping results soft and natural. Lip Blush can be customized as a sheer tint or a fuller color, depending on the level of enhancement you want—perfect for restoring vibrancy and definition. For clients with uneven or darker pigmentation, Dark Lip Neutralization gently corrects tone before adding balanced color, creating lips that look healthier, brighter, and beautifully even.
PMU LINER
Our permanent eyeliner treatments are designed to define the eyes while still looking soft and effortless. Choose a subtle Lash Line Enhancement to add depth and fullness at the lash base, a delicate Baby Wing for a touch of everyday definition, or a Smokey Liner for a more diffused, makeup-inspired look. Each style is customized to your eye shape and lifestyle—so your eyes look brighter, more defined, and perfectly framed without daily makeup.
Medical Tattooing
Inkless scar revision
Inkless Scar Revision is a non-pigmented treatment that improves the texture and quality of scarred skin. Using specialized microneedling and targeted serums, it stimulates collagen production to help scars become smoother, softer, and less noticeable—without adding tattoo pigment.
scar camouflage
Scar Camouflage is a medical tattooing technique that uses custom-matched pigment to blend healed scars with the surrounding skin tone. This treatment helps reduce the visible contrast of scars, creating a more even, natural-looking appearance once the skin has fully healed.
3D Areola & Nipple Restoration
A specialized medical tattooing service that recreates the natural look of the areola and nipple using advanced shading and color techniques. Designed for those who’ve undergone breast surgery or reconstruction, this treatment restores a realistic appearance and helps bring back a sense of confidence and wholeness.
Body Art Tattooing
Turn your ideas into meaningful, one-of-a-kind body art. At Cosmedic Ink, each tattoo is thoughtfully designed to reflect your personal style, story, or inspiration, then professionally applied with precision, creativity, and careful attention to detail. From delicate designs to statement pieces, we create tattoos you’ll feel confident wearing for years to come.
Laser Treatments
Body Contouring
Shape and refine your body without surgery. Using advanced laser technology, we target stubborn fat cells and stimulate natural processes to contour, firm, and sculpt — helping you achieve a slimmer, more defined silhouette.
Laser Hair Removal
Say goodbye to constant shaving and waxing. Our laser hair removal treatment targets unwanted hair at the root, reducing growth over time for smoother, silkier skin that lasts. Suitable for multiple areas of the body with long-term, low-maintenance results.
Pigmentation & Sun Damage Correction
Uneven skin tone, age spots, and sun damage can be visibly reduced with targeted laser treatments. By breaking down pigmentation and stimulating new skin growth, we restore a clearer, more radiant complexion.
Skin Services
Procell Microchanneling
Reveal smoother, firmer, and more radiant skin with Procell Microchanneling. This advanced treatment stimulates your body’s natural collagen and elastin production to reduce fine lines, acne scars, and uneven texture. Experience glowing, rejuvenated skin with minimal downtime and long-lasting results.
Procell Microchanneling Scalp (NEW!)
Encourage stronger, thicker hair growth with our new Procell Microchanneling Scalp treatment. Using the same regenerative technology, this service activates dormant follicles and improves scalp health—perfect for anyone experiencing thinning hair or hair loss. Restore your confidence from root to tip.

hi there!
Meet Keri Hamilton
At Cosmedic Ink, I believe beauty goes far beyond appearance. It is about confidence, comfort, and feeling at home in your own skin.
I moved to Canada from Seattle, Washington in 2012. Shortly after settling in Winnipeg, Manitoba, I established Advanced Permanent Cosmetics, and in 2016 I rebranded to Cosmedic Ink to reflect my specialization in cosmetic and medical tattooing. I have practiced the art of micropigmentation, or permanent makeup tattooing, since 2005.
I bring a balance of artistry, precision, and compassion to every service. Alongside a team of plastic surgeons and nurses, I have helped thousands of breast cancer survivors regain their confidence through reconstruction, tattooing three dimensional areola and nipple restoration onto reconstructed breasts. It is work that sits at the heart of what Cosmedic Ink stands for: thoughtful, restorative care that supports people through change.
I have been blessed with the opportunity of tattooing thousands of beautiful humans from all walks of life. In my 30+ years as a Hair and Makeup Professional and 19 years as a Cosmetic and Medical Tattoo Artist, I have developed a passion to help people feel comfortable in their own skin. From tattooing lips, eyebrows, eyeliner, areolas, and camouflaging of scars, stretchmarks, and other skin irregularities, I have acquired a keen sense of attention to detail and strive for perfection to make each client feel great about the service experience I provide and to feel beautiful inside and out.
Today Cosmedic Ink specializes in 3D areola and nipple restoration, scar camouflage, cosmetic tattooing, and body art tattooing, along with advanced skin services designed to rejuvenate, contour, and refresh. I approach every treatment with care, respect, and attention to detail, because no two stories, bodies, or goals are ever the same.
Whether you are here to heal, enhance, or simply feel more like yourself again, I am here to guide you every step of the way, combining experience, intention, and artistry to deliver results that feel as meaningful as they look.
All things with love,
Keri
