Why choose a 3d Nipple tattoo after mastectomy
A Restorative Option for Survivors - No Surgery Required
A 3D nipple tattoo offers a realistic, non-surgical alternative for individuals who’ve undergone a mastectomy or breast reconstruction.
This procedure is part of paramedical tattooing, specifically designed to support healing — emotionally and physically — after cancer treatment.
Unlike cosmetic tattooing, this service uses advanced pigment layering and dimensional shading to recreate the natural appearance of a nipple, even on flat or scarred skin. It's not about vanity. It’s about feeling whole again.
Whether you choose this as the final step in your healing journey, or simply want a sense of closure without additional surgery, nipple tattooing is deeply personal and profoundly empowering.
What Happens at an Areola Consultation?
Areola Tattoo Consultation Process
At FabULash Artistry, we provide compassionate, personalized care for breast cancer survivors. Here's what to expect during your areola repigmentation consultation...
What to Expect
We will review your goals, expectations and healing history, then design a custom treatment plan just for you. This treatment enhances the breast by creating a realistic areola and nipple-either matching your other side or designing a new set.
During your consultation, we will:
- Improve the look of scars or irregularly shaped areolas
- Correct the size, shape, and color of the nipple
- Restore balance and symmetry for both emotional and visual healing.
Clients often share that this treatment helps them feel whole again. After breast surgery, words like "disfigured, flawed, or impaired" can linger - micropigmentation helps restore confidence.
Your journey to renewed confidence starts here.

3D Areola & Nipple Tattooing for Breast Cancer Survivors in Jacksonville, FL
Restore balance, confidence, and a sense of wholeness after breast reconstruction.
The areola and nipple tattoo is often the final step in the healing journey for many breast cancer survivors. This treatment restores the natural appearance of the breast by implanting pigment into the skin to create the illusion of a realistic areola and nipple.
Whether you've had a mastectomy, breast reduction, reconstruction, or implants, 3D areola tattooing can help restore balance, symmetry, and confidence. It allows you choose to the color, size, tone and shape that feels right for you.
DOES IT HURT?
Pain varies for each person. Many clients have reduced sensation after mastectomy or reconstruction, so discomfort is usually minimal. For those who haven't had surgery (aesthetic areola tattoo), may still be sensitive.
WHAT IS THE AREOLA REPIGMENTATION PROCEDURE?
Your artist will clean and numb the area, then carefully implant pigment into the top layer of skin to simulate the appearance of an areola and nipple. The pigment is custom-blended and feathered to match your unique tone and desired look.
