Restorative Paramedical Tattoo
Natural 3D Areola Design for Indistinguishable Results
3D areola tattooing is a restorative procedure that recreates the appearance of the areola and nipple using pigment, shading, and fine detail. Lindsay custom-blends pigments based on each client’s skin tone and anatomy to produce a result that reads as three-dimensional and natural.
Areola reconstruction tattooing is available to clients who have undergone mastectomy, breast reconstruction, or gender affirmation surgery. There are no prerequisites beyond completing the relevant procedure and allowing the area to fully heal before treatment begins.

Every 3D areola service begins with a $25 virtual consultation. Lindsay reviews your health history, surgical background, skin specifics, and goals before an appointment is scheduled. Pricing is determined at this session based on your individual circumstances.
