Intradermal tattoo as an adjunct to nipple-areola
reconstruction.

Improving results in breast
reconstruction
have encouraged more authentic
restoration
of the lost nipple-areola.
While recreation
of nipple shape can be
reliably achieved,
appropriate color has remained
elusive, except
when a composite nipple
graft has been harvested
from the normal breast,
often at a significant
aesthetic, emotional, and
oncology cost.
Extensive experience with
intradermal tattooing
of the nipple-areola in
over 100 patients
over a 5-year period has
shown this technique
to be exceptionally safe
and effective. Both
medical-grade and commercial
machines are
available at varying prices,
and medical-grade
pigments may be obtained
in a variety of
authentic flesh tones derived
from titanium
or iron oxides.
In nearly every case, tattooing
has helped
with either nipple-areola
color, size, shape,
or position, without any
significant complications.
Some degree of tattoo fading
is common, requiring
occasional late touch-ups
and, more rarely,
complete re-tattooing.
