Through Paramedical Tattooing procedures (Permanent Cosmetics, Micropigmentation), women (and men) who have undergone surgery for breast cancer, such as a mastectomy, can regain a sense of wholeness through Areola Restoration. Areola Restoration, Repigmentation, and Scar Camouflage are all procedures used today by Certified Permanent Cosmetics Artists to help create or improve the appearance of the areola and nipple.

 

Patients who have undergone a mastectomy can regain their figure through breast reconstruction. However, they may not feel “complete” without an areola. A woman may become emotionally distressed from not having areolas or scarred and mishappen areolas. Paramedical Tattooing procedures performed on the breast can provide the “finishing touch” after breast surgery. Patients feel the tattooing process helps them during the last part of their recovery to look complete and feel “whole” and “normal” again.

 

Areola Repigmentation:
This technique allows us to “create” an areola after mastectomy and breast reconstruction. The procedure helps to minimize the appearance of scars or restore an areola to a more natural-looking color and shape. We can re-create a 3D nipple and areola with custom-blended, and shadowing effects are used to create a natural look.

 

Areola Scar Camouflage:
Many breast operations require one or more incisions at or around the edge of the areola, which may produce scarring. The most common peri-areolar scars are from breast augmentation or reduction surgeries. A scar’s appearance can be softened, blended, or reduced by tattooing the areola scar using corrective pigment camouflage techniques.

 

Areola Size or Color Adjustment:
The color of an areola can be darkened, balanced, or enhanced with tattooing. The process helps women who have discolored or lightened areolas who have had areola graft surgery.

 

Areola Repigmentation, Restoration, and Scar Camouflage should only be performed by an experienced, Certified Permanent Cosmetic Artist who is also certified in Micropigmentation. Your Certified Permanent Cosmetic Artist will work with you to determine the best pigment colors that will match your skin tone and take careful measurements to ensure the correct size and symmetry of the areolas to create a natural, 3-Dimensional appearance.

Paramedical Tattooing is a groundbreaking procedure and a specialized type of Permanent Cosmetics used to disguise scars or camouflage areas of the skin that are missing pigment or color.

 

Fabulously Flawless owner, Stacey Heffner is a Certified Paramedical Tattoo Specialist, and she has helped countless clients overcome many different skin discoloration issues.

 

Skin Pigmentation Correction: When there is a loss of color or darkening of the skin due to issues such as Vitiligo or post-inflammatory hypopigmentation from skin trauma, the area of concern can be corrected by blending precise pigment colors that result in beautiful and flawless looking skin.

 

Scar Camouflage: An amazing process that helps to reduce the appearance of scars from accidents, burns, surgery, or the repair of congenital disorders such as cleft palate.

 

Reconstructive Camouflage: This procedure helps post-mastectomy patients by creating a nipple and areola on the newly reconstructed breast. Areola incision scars from breast surgeries for augmentation, reduction, and breast lift can also be masked.

 

As a Certified Paramedical Tattoo Specialist, Stacey understands the science behind pigments and the physiology of human skin and tissue. These procedures require advanced knowledge, training, skills, and experience in Permanent Cosmetics, specialized training, and certification in Paramedical Tattooing as well as an artistic eye for color and skin tones.

 

Stacey works with each client to determine the best pigment colors that will match their skin tone. Clients who have suffered for years with skin discoloration or scars find micro-pigmentation to be an inexpensive, and virtually pain-free solution to correcting skin pigmentation issues.
