Though you may be very excited to get started on your tattoo journey, it’s incredibly important to be responsible about the timeline your body needs to heal properly.

It is recommended to wait at least a minimum of six months after any breast procedure to do any tattooing. Though tattoo wounds are fairly superficial and easy to heal, there is a lot of deeper healing happening under the skin. If damaged/not fully healed breast tissue is tattooed prematurely, you run the risk of the areola tattoos not settling in the correct placement, difficulty healing, and the creation of irreversible scar tissue damage. Many untrained artists will disregard this timeline and tattoo clients prematurely, creating further issues around an already sensitive and difficult situation. It is crucial to wait the recommended time before any tattooing takes place.

This being said, It is also required that each areola tattoo receive at least two passes, the second ten weeks after the first. This patient approach ensures the proper, gentle administration of pigment into damaged tissue - giving us the best possible results. It is critical to the outcome of your tattoo, to not rush this process.
