Breast tattoos come in various forms, sizes, and purposes. Many women today are getting tattoos as a sexy and unique way to draw attention to their breasts. Other women, mostly those who have or once had breast augmentation, who have had reconstructive breast surgery choose to have the nipple reconstruction procedure done, where the nipple is reconstructed with extra skin and then tattooed for color to give the appearance of a natural nipple. The breast tattoo, as a decorative means, is getting more popular among women today. The most common breast tattoos are of tribal symbols, feathers, hearts, stars, and flowers. Before you get your breast tattoo, be certain that you have chosen a professional tattoo artist that you are comfortable with. Some women want breast tattoos, but are a bit embarrassed of revealing themselves for a tattoo artist. Sometimes they will ask a friend to give them a homemade tattoo, while other times, they will search around until they find a professional tattoo artist that they are comfortable with. The latter decision of finding a professional tattoo artist is the right choice, as homemade tattoos are dangerous. Infections can result from improperly sterilized equipment and complications can be the product of inexperienced tattoo artists. Better safe than sorry. Women with breast cancer must often undergo a mastectomy. The surgeon will typically remove the entire breast, including the nipple during this process. Many women opt to have their breast reconstructed for a natural look, and this is where another form of breast tattoos comes into play. Once the bulk of the breast has been formed, the patient can choose to have their nipple reconstructed as well, for an even more natural appearance. The doctor will take some skin from another part of the body, construct the nipple, and tattoo the nipple and areola to match the color on the other breast. It’s a simple process of nipple reconstruction, and a common form of a breast tattoo. |
