Hello, I am Alex
Skin Restoration & Dermopigmentation Specialist.
Founder of the Velvet Myst studio in Montreal, I apply the science of the body, artistic realism, and colorimetry to the service of paramedical dermo-repair and ultra-realistic permanent makeup.
My journey, my vision.
Originally from France, I dedicated over 20 years to film special effects, a field where I learned to reproduce reality to perfection. This science of textures and human colorimetry is now the foundation of my practice.
My journey is based on a dual requirement: an absolute mastery of artistic realism combined with the most rigorous clinical protocols.
Before fully dedicating myself to dermopigmentation and skin care, I spent all those years recreating skin textures, volumes, and colorimetry through high-level realistic arts. This unique expertise, along with my ongoing learning since 2020 in skin science and pigments, allows me today to analyze each tissue, each scar, and each skin undertone with the precision of a master craftsman.
My goal is to offer sustainable solutions that give everyone back control of their image, to feel better about themselves.
It is particularly important to me to offer an inclusive and high-end space, using exclusively eco-friendly, biodegradable, and fully vegan supplies, so that each treatment respects our planet, in addition to the integrity of your skin and your story.
Skin Restoration, Scars & Pigmentation
I specialize in the correction, textural regeneration, and pigmentation of tissues altered by post-surgical, accidental, or medical journeys. Each treatment plan is fully personalized and tailored to the physiology of your skin to restore its natural appearance and sustainably boost your self-confidence.
Starting in the fall of 2026, Velvet Myst will expand its solutions with the launch of hyper-realistic removable silicone nipple prosthetics, offering a custom alternative for body image reconstruction.
In this same committed approach, my studio actively supports gender affirmation by providing specialized, safe, and highly respectful support for scar care and areola harmonization.
High Expertise: Freckles
I have also developed my own exclusive technique of Freckle Tattoos, offering custom results of unparalleled hyper-realism. This method allows for the recreation of freckles that blend so perfectly with the complexion that they become indistinguishable. Recognized by my peers for this mastery, I am honored to have been selected to present this technique in demonstration on the prestigious stage of WULOP Canada in Toronto since 2024 — a mark of excellence and rigor for my clientele.
