Areola micropigmentation is an artistic cosmetic solution of applying organic pigments into the skin surrounding the nipple of a breast. This procedure is recommended for those who have had breast cancer and who have undergone breast reconstruction. Areola pigmentation techniques can “create” an areola after breast reconstruction, minimize the appearance of scars or restore an areola to a more natural looking color and shape. These procedures help improve the appearance and self-esteem of both women and men who have undergone breast surgery.

One should expect little or no pain during the treatment. Numbing cream can entirely eliminate the pain during the treatment. Corrections or touch-ups are performed one month after the initial treatment.
