1. Breast Reconstruction After Cancer: After breast cancer surgery and nipple reconstruction surgery, patients request areola tattooing to restore their nipples.

• 3D nipple tattoo
  The most popular method, 3D nipple tattooing, uses shading, colour gradients and tattoo realism to create a nipple on flat skin. By combining light and dark colours, artists can create the illusion of protrusion, so it looks like the nipple is raised when it’s actually flat. This method is great for those who have had their nipple removed during a mastectomy.
• Areola Pigmentation
  This method involves implanting pigment into the areola to create more definition, symmetry or aesthetic look. It’s used by those who want to enhance the natural shape or colour of their areolas.
• Scar Camouflage
  This method covers scars from surgery or injury. Using colour matching skills, artists blend pigments with the skin tone. This method is great for post-mastectomy scars or hypertrophic scars.

• Day 1-3: Swelling, tenderness and redness is normal. The area will feel like a mild sunburn.
• Day 4-7: Scabbing starts as the skin heals. Don’t pick at scabs, as this can cause pigment loss or scarring.
• Day 8-14: Scabs will fall off, and the tattoo will start to look more defined. The colour will look dull, but this is normal as the pigment settles into the skin.

1. No Sun: Sunlight can cause pigment to fade. Cover the area with loose clothing or apply SPF (once the area is fully healed).
2. No Picking or Scratching: Scabs are a part of the healing process. Don’t pick them off, and you’ll avoid uneven pigment loss.
3. Use Prescribed Creams: Your tattoo artist may give you specific creams to use to aid in healing. Apply as instructed to avoid dryness or infection.
4. Wear Loose Clothing: Tight bras or tops can irritate the area. Wear soft, breathable fabrics to reduce friction.
5. No Soaking: Stay out of pools, hot tubs and baths for at least 2 weeks to prevent infection.
