Areola
Reconstruction 

Areola reconstruction treatment is a form of cosmetic tattooing that can change the lives of those who have had a mastectomy due to breast cancer. It can also help patients following breast reconstruction, uplift surgery, pre and post gender reassignment surgery or gynecomastia surgery. Nipple and areola reconstruction can help a breast cancer survivor feel more comfortable with their her breasts. The 3D effect of areola pigmentation is popular, whether or not clients first opt for surgical reconstruction.

How does the procedure work?

This is a permanent make-up procedure that is used to correct the shape and colour of your areolas. Areola reconstruction through medical tattooing can create the illusion of a real nipple. Advanced micropigmentation techniques involve shadowing, highlighting, feathering, and contouring. Colour selection and blending is vital for a natural looking result. Our expert technician can combine know-how and cutting-edge techniques to create illusion of a real nipple, which can help women feel like themselves again.

Prices:

  • One nipple areola tattoo – £250
  • Two nipples areola tattoo – £400

Frequently asked questions:

What happens during the treatment?

We will chat through exactly what you’d like the end result to be. Then the technician will “pre-draw” your new areola and nipple shape, size and placement, using temporary markers.

We use a sterilised needle that gently vibrates on the dermal layers of the skin, depositing a mineral-based pigment into the areola until the desired colour is achieved.

How long does it take?

A single areola reconstruction appointment usually takes around 2-3 hours
