3D AREOLA & PARAMEDICAL TATTOOING

Paramedical Areola 3D tattooing uses permanent pigments to replicate the areola on a woman's surgically reconstructed breast. A variety of light and dark pigments are customized to create the 3D illusion of an areola and a nipple. Looking whole and feeling complete is a final step in the healing process for many women. Skin camouflage or repigmentation can help disguise a scar or skin area missing pigment or color. This process will not restore damaged skin, but applying a pigment can improve the color differences to help disguise the scar or the area missing color. The applied pigment will make the area of concern appear less noticeable, blended, and camouflaged. Stretchmark scarring treatment can offer patients significant decreases in the appearance of scarring. The tattooing process allows for the addition of permanent pigments to match the unaffected skin area lessening the visual effects of the stretch marks and camouflaging them. *The Women's Health and Cancer Rights Act (WHCRA) of 1998 requires insurance to cover the cost of mastectomies and all breast reconstruction.
