Nipple & areola tattooing

Nipple and areola tattooing is a specialized form of cosmetic tattooing that offers a solution for individuals who have undergone breast surgery, such as mastectomy or breast reconstruction. This procedure helps recreate the natural appearance of the nipple and areola, restoring confidence and a sense of normalcy. In this blog, we'll explore what nipple and areola tattooing involves, the different treatment options, the process from consultation to completion, and how you can book a session

The basics

Nipple and areola tattooing, also known as medical micropigmentation, is a procedure that uses pigment to recreate the appearance of a nipple and areola on the breast. This is often the final step in breast reconstruction, providing a realistic and natural-looking result. The tattoo is customized to match the individual’s skin tone and desired appearance, creating a three-dimensional effect that mimics a natural nipple.

This procedure is suitable for anyone who has lost their nipple and areola due to surgery or trauma, as well as those who want to enhance the appearance of their natural areolas.
