Having suffered third degree burns to 40% of her face as a toddler, Basma Hameed set out on a two decade-long journey to pioneer a first-of-its-kind dermal procedure known as “scar camouflage,” employing custom skin tone pigments to make almost any scar, on any skin tone, nearly imperceptible. 

In this week’s episode, we find out why celebrities and royalty flock to her Basma Hameed Clinics in Beverly Hills and Toronto to hide tell-tale surgery lines, acne scars and stretch marks – and we get the details on her gone-viral colour cosmetics line, Basma Beauty, expanding across US Sephora stores next week.
