This ensures every client receives customized care and exceptional results.
Procedure
The process starts with outlining the design, followed by the application of a topical anesthetic to ensure your comfort. Using advanced techniques, we create hyper-realistic, three-dimensional areolas with specialized pigments. These pigments are carefully selected to restore the original or desired shape, size, and tone, providing a natural and lifelike result.

Achieving realistic nipple tattoos typically requires two initial color sessions, followed by a final touch-up appointment. Sessions are spaced 8 weeks apart to allow for proper healing. With the right care, the results are long-lasting and can remain vibrant for years.
Aftercare
After completing the procedure, we provide detailed aftercare instructions and specialized products to support proper healing and ensure the best results. Following these guidelines is essential for maintaining the longevity and quality of the tattoo.
Precautions & Recommendations
Areola tattoos are often performed on delicate, post-surgical skin, including areas affected by scarring, augmentation, or radiation. It’s vital to choose a professional with expertise in working with compromised skin tissue to minimize risks of infection or sensitivities and to ensure the highest quality results.

Frequently Asked Questions
Areola tattoo, also known as nipple tattoo's or 3D areola restoration, is a cosmetic procedure designed to create or restore the appearance of a natural areola. It’s commonly sought by individuals who have undergone breast surgery such as mastectomies, gender-affirming surgeries, or those wishing to enhance their appearance. This procedure uses tattooing techniques to mimic the color, texture, and size of an areola, offering a realistic and aesthetic result.
The level of discomfort during areola tattooing varies from person to person. Most clients experience mild discomfort similar to that of a regular tattoo. Since the procedure is done with a fine needle, numbing cream is typically applied to minimize any pain. However, pain tolerance varies, and some may feel slight sensitivity or irritation during the procedure.
An areola tattoo generally lasts between 2 to 5 years, depending on factors such as skin type, lifestyle, and aftercare. Over time, the color may fade slightly, but touch-ups can be done to maintain the desired appearance. Proper aftercare is important in ensuring the longevity of the tattoo.
Before your session, ensure your skin is healthy and free from any irritation. It's recommended to avoid alcohol, excessive sun exposure, and blood thinners for at least 24-48 hours before your appointment. If you have any specific concerns or medical conditions, it’s best to consult with your technician or a healthcare professional beforehand.
Healing typically takes about 1-2 weeks, during which time it’s important to follow the aftercare instructions provided by your technician. This usually includes avoiding direct sun exposure, refraining from picking at scabs, and keeping the area clean and moisturized. Mild swelling, redness, and tenderness are common right after the procedure but should subside within a few days.
