Areola Artistry
3D Areola Nipple Tattooing
Many women following a unilateral or bilateral mastectomy decide to have a reconstruction immediately following surgery. A number of surgical options are available for them, this reconstruction process helps in the physical and mental healing process following breast cancer or breast surgery. Surgeries vary from patient to patient, and every healed result is different.
Following reconstruction, patients are usually left with a flat area of skin, which we refer to as a beautiful 'blank canvas' or, they can surgically opt for a nipple reconstruction, this is where folds of skin are cut and remoulded and heal into a 3d nipple mound. Obviously due to the skin used to create this nipple, this new nipple will be the patients usual skin colour. Both surgeries can be tattooed very successfully.
Once the area is fully healed, and all scar tissue in the area to be tattooed is white and not pink, we can safely and effectively tattoo a new coloured Areola Nipple.
The process itself takes approximately 1 hour per side plus an additional 30 minutes consultation (either before or on the day). We advise two treatments to complete the treatment, as sometimes colours may need strengthening and certain areas may need tweaking.
Our clinic is in Hitchin and we offer these treatments 5 days a week, however due to spaces we do keep Friday's as the best day for bookings.
If you have private medical health insurance and would like to claim this treatment via your provider please book in your consultation and bring any relevant paperwork with you.
How to Book
Hundreds of women each year have to undergo some form of breast surgery. In my clinic I see many different results following Breast Reductions, Childhood Scars, Breast Cancer, Mastectomy, and Reconstructive Surgeries.
I am a specialist in Areola Artistry, giving women the look of a nipple where there is not one using the method of illusion tattooing.
Body tattoo pigments are used for longevity, this in instead of semi permanent pigments that will fade over time.
I work from my clinic in Hitchin, Hertfordshire in a warm and welcoming environment.
There are three options to choose from with regards to booking, however please note there is a wait in bookings due to a very busy diary.
