I did a thing guys!
I just completed my medical PMU certification and am now ready to start my journey into Areola Restoration . If you haven't heard of this, I beg you to research it. It is the entire reason that I got into permanent makeup in the first place! Its life changing for women that have lost so much of themselves in the fight against breast cancer!
What exactly is areola restoration you ask???
It is a way to construct a nipple and/or areola on a reconstructed breast for a more natural appearance. I use techniques similar to those of traditional tattoo artists by blending and feathering in pigment to create a 3D realistic look.
Areola tattooing is not restricted to women who have had non-nipple-sparing mastectomies; even if you were able to preserve your nipples and areola during the breast reconstruction process, you may have surgical scars that can be visually corrected with a tattoo to create areola that are symmetrical and consistent in color
Who needs this treatment?
Many women are surprised by how much the lack of an areola can affect self-confidence, feelings of health and overall quality of life.
Areola tattooing is an option for nearly every woman who has undergone breast reconstruction. Even though areola tattooing can help women feel more “whole” post-reconstruction, some do not pursue this procedure because they don’t believe it’s essential. However, the lack of an areola can be distressing for many women and can negatively impact feelings of femininity as well as physical intimacy with a partner.
If you or someone that you know, has undergone breast reconstruction and are 6 months to a year post surgery I would love to schedule a consultation.
I posted some pictures below, so you can see just how amazing this can look!
Please help me spread the word about this amazing new treatment!
