Clients must have written go-ahead from their surgeon and be at least 6 months to 1 year post-op to proceed with 3-D areola reconstruction.  This allows for ample healing time required, breast settlement and for the required scar maturation to have taken place.  Please come to your appointment with clean skin / no lotion or skincare products.

As the 3-D areola procedure  is considered the final stage of reconstruction for breast cancer patients, many insurances reimburse for this procedure. Sigil Aesthetics can provide you with the necessary documentation if required. Please inquire with your insurance beforehand to check coverage.

3D areola tattooing is considered a permanent body tattoo. Clients may experience some lightening over time and scar tissue can sometimes lend to difficulty retaining pigment, but the majority of our clients experience optimal results with their first procedure. We use pigments specifically formulated for this type of work and we suggest a follow up session to ensure optimal results.

Clients who have undergone a mastectomy often experience a loss of feeling in the area due to nerve damage, tissue removal and trauma to the skin via scar tissue. Most clients feel only mild discomfort if any at all.  We do offer topical anesthetics to those with sensitivities if required and do our best to observe any pain thresholds to ensure comfort during your procedure. Often times clients fall asleep!

Unfortunately, no. We do not tattoo pregnant or nursing people as a safety precaution.

Yes 3D areola tattooing is safe, but as with any procedure, there are risks, although minimal.   Please discuss with your artist any potential allergies or sensitivities.  Our artists have been trained to work specifically with delicate post-surgery skin, scar tissue, and take every care imaginable to avoid any additional trauma or damage to the skin. If you have specific concerns or questions, please bring them up for discussion- we want you to be at ease and informed.
