You can be thankful for being alive... and still want more for your body
Our 3D nipple tattoos are designed to recreate the natural look of nipples with incredible detail. Every tattoo is created with:
Soft, Seamless Edges:
Gentle gradients that mimic the way natural skin transitions into the areola, so the tattoo blends perfectly with your chest.
Texture and Depth That Look Real, Even Up Close:
Layered shading techniques add dimension, making each tattoo appear as if it’s part of your skin.
Custom Color Matching Just for You:
We tailor the pigments to your skin tone, creating a match that feels personal and unique to your body.
These tattoos aren’t just about appearance—they’re about recreating a part of yourself that feels authentic, so you can look in the mirror and see something familiar, not something missing.
You step out of the shower and catch your reflection. The tattoos blend so naturally into your skin that you almost forget they weren’t always there. You look closer and see soft edges, subtle texture, and details that make them feel like a natural part of you.
Moments that once made you pause—changing in front of a partner, looking in the mirror—no longer carry the weight of “what’s missing.” Instead, you feel at ease, like this is just another part of your day.
These tattoos are about giving you back a sense of normalcy, so you can live without constantly being reminded of what you’ve been through.
Yes, if you've undergone a mastectomy, breast reconstruction, gender-affirming surgery, or simply want to enhance the symmetry or color of your areolas. This restorative tattooing helps you reclaim confidence and feel whole again—inside and out.
Is areola and nipple tattooing a good choice for me?
There are no national regulations for this specialized service, so choosing an experienced paramedical tattoo artist is crucial. Many hospitals offer referrals, but few professionals are trained in 3D areola tattooing. Our studio specializes in this art form, blending aesthetics with empathy.
What should I know about areola tattooing?
Most clients report little to no pain. Sensation often depends on nerve endings post-surgery. We prioritize your comfort every step of the way, and we’ll walk you through what to expect before your session.
Will it hurt?
Do you numb the area before tattooing?
We use numbing creams sparingly because they can interfere with how the pigment settles into scar tissue. Our method ensures a more vibrant, long-lasting, and natural-looking result.
Do you numb the area before tattooing?
How long does the procedure take?
Typically, your session is 2 hours. This includes time for design and size consultation, pigment selection, and the tattoo itself. It’s never rushed—this is your healing moment.
How long does the procedure take?
Wear something easy to remove and loose, like a button-up top. We'll provide a robe to keep you comfortable during the procedure and apply a breathable, protective dressing afterward.
What should I wear to my appointment?
Initial healing takes around 4–6 weeks. Expect mild scabbing and some light peeling. We'll give you detailed aftercare instructions to support a smooth, healthy recovery.
How long does healing take?
Look for someone with verified experience in paramedical tattooing, a strong portfolio of before-and-after results, and compassionate bedside manner. We specialize in working with scar tissue and post-surgical skin to deliver safe, lifelike results.
What should I look for in an areola tattoo artist?
Technically, 3D areola tattoos are designed to be permanent, but considering that the skin is compromised and often scarred, it can soften the tattoo much faster than healthy skin. With proper care, most clients enjoy their results for a few years before opting for a touch-up session. A simple color refresh can be done in about an hour.
How long will my areola tattoo last?
Yes, all tattoos fade or change due to sun exposure, aging, and health. Most clients refresh color every 5–10 years. UV protection is recommended on healed areas to ensure longevity.
Can the color fade or change over time?
Through advanced shading, color blending, and light manipulation, we create the illusion of a raised, natural nipple. Even up close, the effect is realistic. It truly is an art form, and every artist has their own style.
How do you create a 3D nipple?
In many cases, yes. Areola tattooing is often classified as part of breast reconstruction under the Women’s Health and Cancer Rights Act. We offer medical billing paperwork free of charge for all of our clients to help you get the coverage you deserve.
Is this covered by insurance?
Absolutely. We offer private, no-pressure consultations to answer your questions, review before-and-after photos, and ensure you feel confident moving forward.

Can I book a consultation first?
Most surgeons recommend waiting at least 4–6 months post-surgery, but we require closer to one year. We want scars to be fully white and the skin underneath fully healed for best results. We offer free consultations if you're unsure or you can message us pictures for a quick check.
How soon after surgery can I get areola tattooing?
Yes. We only use compliant and sterile-grade inks from reputable manufacturers who have been in business for over a century.
Is the pigment safe?
No. Tattoo pigment is deposited just beneath the epidermis into the dermis, far from any implant. This keeps the procedure safe for those with breast implants.
Can the needle damage implants?
We follow strict OSHA and CDC protocols: single-use sterile needles, hospital-grade disinfectants, autoclaved tools, face masks, and fresh gloves for every client.
What safety and hygiene measures do you follow?
Temporary redness, swelling, mild scabbing, or itching are common immediately after getting tattooed.
What potential side effects should I expect?
Yes, a one-on-one consultation (20–30 minutes) with Jayd will help her understand your goals, assess your skin, and ensure you feel comfortable moving forward.
Is a consultation required before the procedure?
Absolutely. We custom-blend pigments to match your skin tone, existing areolas, or reconstructed nipples to ensure symmetry and lifelike results.
Can you match my natural skin tone and existing pigmentation?
Jayd works in two sessions. The goal is to avoid overworking the skin in one session. After 8–10 weeks, the second session ("the magic session") enhances detail, 3D effect, and balance.
How many sessions will I need? Will I need a touch-up?
You'll receive custom aftercare instructions. Typically, you'll wear a waterproof dressing for 7–10 days, cleanse with fragrance-free lotion, and avoid intense activity and sun. Healing completes in 4–6 weeks. A touch-up happens 8–10 weeks later.
What is the aftercare process?
Yes. Many survivors find it helpful to wait until they’ve emotionally accepted their post-surgery body before getting tattooed.
Is emotional readiness important?
That’s totally valid. We offer free temporary nipple tattoos that fade in 7–10 days. These let you "try it on" before committing. Book an appointment—it only takes about 5 minutes to apply.

Blend scars and stretch marks seamlessly into your natural skin tone, so you can stop covering up and start showing up in your favorite outfits.
You can love your body + still want more for it
Your tattooed area won’t change color if you tan. The ink will hold its original shade, while your surrounding skin will darken, so the contrast with stretch marks will be much less noticeable. You’ll still have a natural-looking blend overall.
Here’s a visual demonstration that I crafted to help explain how the stretch mark camouflage tattoo works, and what happens when you tan. Watch here.
What happens when I tan?
No, it doesn’t remove stretch marks—unfortunately, there’s no way to remove them completely other than surgery. Our camouflage tattoo treatment conceals stretch marks by blending them with your natural skin tone, like a permanent “filter” that reduces the contrast, making them much less noticeable.
Does this treatment remove stretch marks?
We’re so happy for you! But for safety reasons, we don’t treat clients who are pregnant or breastfeeding. We’d love to welcome you after this period, once your scars are fully healed.
Can I get the treatment while pregnant or breastfeeding?
For most people, yes! Your stretch marks need to be at least two years old, lighter than your skin tone, and fully healed. We’ll help determine if this treatment is a good fit for you through a virtual consultation.
Is this treatment suitable for all skin types?
For the best color match, we recommend waiting until your natural skin tone returns, as tanning can affect the final look. Matching to your natural tone ensures the most seamless result.
Can I get tattooed if my skin is already tanned?
There may be some mild discomfort, generally rated around a 6 or 7 out of 10. We don’t numb the area to ensure the pigment settles well, but we do our best to make you as comfortable as possible.
Will it hurt? Do you numb clients?
Expect mild redness and swelling for the first 1-3 days, but most clients can return to regular activities the same day. We’ll give you aftercare instructions to help reduce any redness and make sure healing goes smoothly.
How will I look immediately afterward?
On average, results start to show within 45-60 days. Healing time can vary depending on factors like age, skin type, and overall health.
How quickly will I see results?
Technically results are permanent. With good aftercare, the results typically last anywhere between 3 - 5 years or more. Your skin type, age, and lifestyle can affect longevity.
How long will the results last?
Pricing depends on the size and location of the treatment area, with rates between $500 and $2,000 per area. We’ll give you a clear quote during your consultation based on your specific needs.
What is the cost of the procedure?
Yes, we partner with Cherry to offer flexible financing. The application is quick, and you’ll get approval within 24 hours to choose a payment plan that works for you.
Do you offer payment plans?
Laser treatments can help with skin texture but don’t add color to blend in stretch marks, so they often remain visible. Camouflage tattooing adds skin-tone pigment, creating a more natural look at an affordable price.

Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Scalp Micropigmentation
Scalp Micropigmentation (SMP) is a non-surgical treatment for hair loss. We apply tiny, hair-like pigments to your scalp, creating the look of real hair follicles. This technique covers thinning areas and gives you the appearance of a fuller head of hair.
What is SMP?
Yes! Each pigment is carefully applied to match the size of natural hair follicles, making it look incredibly realistic. Even close up, most people can’t tell SMP apart from actual hair.
Does scalp micropigmentation look real?
Hair loss can be caused by genetics, hormonal changes, medical conditions, or aging. SMP is an effective option for all types of hair loss, including male pattern baldness, alopecia, and thinning hair.
What causes hair loss?
With proper care, SMP can last 4-6 years before you might need a touch-up. Avoiding excessive sun exposure and following aftercare instructions will help keep your results looking fresh for as long as possible.
How long will SMP last?
Yes, SMP may gradually fade over the years, but it won’t turn blue or smear like some traditional tattoos. Touch-ups are available if you want to refresh the color and keep it looking its best.
Will SMP fade or change color over time?
Yes, SMP can be removed with a special laser if you ever decide it’s not for you. Pain levels vary, but most clients rate it around 3-5 out of 10. Many even find it relaxing enough to doze off during the procedure.
Is SMP reversible? Is it painful?
Most clients need 2-4 sessions spaced about two weeks apart to achieve the full look. After your final session, the results will gradually settle in over the next month, leaving you with the finished, natural look.
How long will it take for my final SMP appearance to form?
You might notice some mild redness for the first 24 hours, and the pigment will look darker at first. Over the next 1-3 weeks, the pigment softens and lightens, blending naturally with your scalp.
What will my scalp look like immediately after treatment?
We’ll work with you to select the hairline that best suits your face shape and style preferences. SMP works with both short and long hair, depending on your goals and the density of your existing hair.
How do I choose a hairline? Can I keep my hair long?
Yes, SMP is highly effective at covering transplant scars, making them much less noticeable and blending them in with the rest of your scalp.

"My name is Nicole and I had the BEST experience with Jayd today! I am a breast cancer survivor and she did a PHENOMENAL job on my areola and nipple tattoos! My eyes were literally filled with tears at the end (it didn’t take nearly as long as I thought!) and I am so grateful. Not only is Jayd and amazing person and kind, she makes you feel so comfortable. I was impressed at her ability to choose the perfect colors. I can’t express enough how much it means to be able to look in the mirror now and feel better about myself as a woman. Cancer stole so much from me and Jayd helped give a little bit of my peace back to me."
"Being a breast cancer survivor, finding the right person to connect with is important and Jayd is it! I looked for 4 year for the right person to finish my journey with. She warm, caring, thoughtful and so gentle. From the first zoom call to finishing in the studio I always felt welcomed. I flew from Florida to Arizona because I knew she was the right person for the job!"

"Jayd is heaven sent! I’m not kidding. After my double mastectomy with immediate DIEP due to an aggressive Grade 3 IDC, I still didn’t feel like “me”. My 3D nipples look real! If you just looked at them, you would never know they are tattoos! I had zero pain. Jayd is warm and welcoming and I felt comfortable with her immediately! I am so happy with how I look now."

"I would like to thank Jade with Studio Conceal for helping me through a rough time in my life. She helped me to get back my confidence, and feel like myself again, after skin cancer surgery and Radiation. I appreciate all that she has done to allow we to turn the page on to the next chapter of my life."

"I had a scar on my face since 2019 due to basal cell carcinoma, which people would always point out, thinking it was food on my face. It happened in person and a lot during zoom room meetings over the years, which got really annoying. I was unaware of scar concealment tattoos until a good friend of mine’s son pointed out the food on my face again, only for me to tell him it’s a scar. That's when he told me about concealment tattoos. I googled it and found Studio Conceal. I am extremely happy. I can look in the mirror every morning and join zoom room meetings without being self-conscious about it. It’s now practically invisible thanks to Studio Conceal. I highly recommend anybody who has a scar, stretch marks, etc., and may be self-conscious about it, to get it taken care of with Jyde and her team. They are truly professional, and you won’t be disappointed."

"I recently had the pleasure of visiting Studio Conceal for my SMP sessions. As someone who has been shaving their head for over a decade, I wanted a solution to the inconvenience of constantly shaving and dealing with nicks and cuts all over my head. I discovered SMP and decided to get it done at Studio Conceal, which I am very happy about! Trusting someone to create a realistic-looking hairline can be nerve-wracking when your appearance is at risk, but Jayd was very supportive, professional, and patient with me. The end result is very natural-looking and I have since received several double takes after having the procedure done. Anyone who has been brave enough to comment has given very encouraging feedback. I highly recommend Studio Conceal to anyone considering SMP, especially those who are hesitant to take the chance and trust someone with their appearance like I was. It was a great experience, and I felt supported throughout the entire process."

"I have never been happier with my breasts and I love the way I feel and look! I feel like a woman again, especially since I'm in this great relationship, sometimes I even go braless and I don't care if you can see through it because you can see my areolas lol. Thank you Jayd for you changing my life, you're the best."
