Professional Paramedical & Artistic Tattooing in New York USA
Restorative Areola Tattooing & Scar Camouflage in New York City

Areola repigmentation (sometimes called nipple tattooing or 3D nipple tattooing) and scar camouflage are non-surgical techniques used to create aesthetic continuity and support a sense of wholeness following mastectomy, breast reconstruction, gender-affirming surgery, injury, or scarring.
My work blends fine art precision with trauma-informed care, offering a gentle, highly personalized process in a private Manhattan studio. Each treatment is approached with patience, transparency, and deep respect for each client's physical and emotional layers of healing.
In addition to restorative tattooing, I also offer fine-line body art and permanent makeup for clients who are looking for thoughtful, intentional tattoo work or subtle cosmetic enhancement.
