Nipple and areola tattooing is a cosmetic procedure that recreates or enhances the appearance of the areola and nipple, often for individuals after breast surgery or reconstruction.

Anyone who has undergone mastectomy, breast reconstruction, surgery, or desires to correct asymmetry or enhance the areola’s appearance can benefit from this treatment.

The pain is very minimal due to pre numbing creams as well as an aneasthric gel I use, It may feel like a scratch. 

Melissa uses advanced techniques, shading, and color-matching to create realistic, natural-looking results tailored to your skin tone.

My equipment/tools are either disposable hand tools or my machine uses disposable parts, therefore every procedure is done using a brand new needle as well as the attachments, all of which are individually wrapped and sterile, all disposed of after each treatment - as per health and safety requirements.

Your skin type will guide Melissa with pigment choice as well as questions she will ask you on the day. Melissa’s range of pigments is vast.

Depending on the procedure you have and the technique used your procedure can last from 12 months to 5 years. 

Proper care following your procedure is necessary to achieve the best results. I will provide you with a detailed aftercare sheet on the day. This will include:

  • Application of an aftercare cream depending on which procedure you have.
  • No heavy exercise for 7 days, however you can do low cardio exercise such as weights and walking but no exercise that will cause heavy sweating, this includes saunas.
  • No ocean or pool swimming for a few days.
  • No Retinol/vitamin A products on the brow area for 30 days.
  • Avoid makeup or skin care products near the brows for 7 days, this is easy to get around Melissa will give you tips on the day.
