#mastectomytattooo completed on Right #DIEP flap with 🎀 #3Dnippletattoo on completely flat skin. History of #radiation therapy on right side. Fresh #nippletattoo will become less red as it heals. #diepflapreconstruction by Midwest Breast
#nippletattoo by me 🥰 she will return for perfecting session to add more details.
#MASTECTOMYTATTOOS shown here after detail 3D touch up and slight enlargement of left tattoo, right is done after one sitting so no additional #areolatattoo required. She has a left #implant based #breastreconstruction and #areolatattoo on right native #NAC for symmetry. She originally had an offset #nipplereconstruction and an extremely faded #physician office #nippletattoo that became more displaced after a surgical revision. I suggested she have it excised by her #breastsurgeon and I do a #3Dnippletattoo so , that became our plan.😉🤗 (You can see the incision where the reconstructed #nipple was removed) I also implanted ink on the 1st visit to her natural areola as she wanted it darkened and it to match as the end result since her previous tattoo never did. She was referred to me by her oncologist in Cincinnati, Ohio after seeing my work come into his office 💗 #physicianreferred Reconstruction by The Plastic Surgery Group, Cincinnati, Ohio
#MASTECTOMYTATTOO unilateral #diepflapreconstruction 🎀 this is shown after the #areolatattoo is totally healed and detail #touchup completed. I'm so glad to have met this very special lady 💗 #ihavethebestjobintheworld🌎 #3Dnippletattoo by me 🤗 #breastreconstructionsurgery by Midwest Breast
She had a #unilateral #diepflapreconstruction with surgically created #nipplereconstruction 🎀 Her nipple base was wide compared to her native nipple size, so the goal is to create that same image on the top of the nipple protrusion. Fresh tattoo will become less pink as it heals. She's very happy with her results💗 Diep flap by Midwest Breast #areolarestorativetattooing by me.

#MASTECTOMYTATTOOS shown freshly done on unilateral #diepflapreconstruction with surgically created #nipplereconstruction 🎀 by Midwest Breast 💓Her native left areola is so light, we decided it best to tattoo it as well for a good color match to her reconstruction on the right. She did great and will return later for top off.
Left natural areola is healed from the 1st sitting so I only added to the right reconstructed breast/nipple
#MASTECTOMYTATTOO shown freshly done on unilateral implant based #breastreconstruction 🎀 by Dr. Roman Skoracki at The Ohio State University Medical Center’s Department of Plastic Surgery. She had a “nipple sharing” #nipplereconstruction. The #reconstructivesurgeon used her native nipple to donate tissue to create her new nipple on her reconstructed breast. I tattooed her areola and populated a bit of color onto the new nipple too. She will healed up and return for touch up later ❤ * She has some retained areola tissue on her reconstructive side as well but she feels it to be less obvious after the tattoo gives a new focal point on her breast.
I added a bit if width to the sides and more details 💗

🎀 At top off, the areola was healed from 1st session with a nice color and saturation match, so I just needed to add to the nipple 💗 Size needs to be considered with unilateral tattooing.👉 It is important to not include the perimeter scar in the size of your tattoo...even though the tattoo may appear smaller than the native NAC, because if you do, later when the scar fades, the tattoo will be too large.

#MASTECTOMYTATTOO shown freshly done on unilateral #diepflapreconstruction 🎀 the reddish color will subside as it heals and she will return later for touch up. Definitely planning to add to the 3D effect next visit. It's important to only do as much as the skin wants to allow in one session and then add later. #paidwithasmile
#MASTECTOMYTATTOO shown freshly done on unilateral #diepflapreconstruction by Dr. Sisk at Ohio State University plastic surgery. The color is red and will subside as it heals. She'll be back for touch up later.
Added just a hint more color and more to 3D
#mastectomytattoo shown freshly done on bilateral #nipplesparing mastectomies with #diepflapreconstruction by Dr. Kale of Midwest Breast. She suffered nipple necrosis on the right side and after debridements and wound care, she is finally ready for her #3Dnippletattoo 💓 There is some super pale areola tissue present so the #3deffect can be hard to retain. The red color will subside as it heals and she will return later for top off.
You can see here color take was good everywhere except her hypertrophic scar. I added more here but as the scar fades, she will likely need more added later.
#MASTECTOMYTATTOO shown freshly done on unilateral implant based #breastreconstruction by Dr. DePerro, mastectomy by Dr. Oostra. This appears very red as the ink has been diluted quite a bit. If it heals too dark we will consider tattooing her native areola to match.
You can see the redness has subsided and a very soft areola remains to match her other side. She's incredibly happy.
#mastectomytattoo shown freshly done on unilateral implant based #breastreconstruction by Dr. Skoracki at #ohiostateplasticsurgery 🎀 #3Dnippletattoo on left and I also tattooed her native areola for balance as it was extremely light.
