Areola/nipple micro-pigmentation procedure has helped thousands of women worldwide after breast cancer surgery. Today this paramedical tattooing technique, creates a realistic-looking areola with the illusion of nipple protrusion, provides an esthetic alternative to women who have had mastectomies and breast reconstruction.
Women fighting with illness or disfigurement often lose confidence and self-esteem, feeling like a vital part of their femininity has been taken away. By restoring the physical appearance lost in surgery, areola/nipple micro-pigmentation offers a long-term solution without further surgical involvement. The realistic results provide a solid emotional boost, relieve the psychological trauma of an altered body, and eliminate the constant, physical reminder of the medical suffering.
