This unique comprehensive course truly takes the beginning student through the proper steps to ensure a safe and effective procedure for the mastectomy patient. Understanding areola restoration tattooing and the entire mastectomy canvas is so important for the technician. It's not only about the tattoo, it's the entire canvas presented to you as the expert.

Practice Art materials
As all artists agree practice is very important. Drawing, coloring, and memorizing the steps of the areola design templates are an important part of art and design. The 26 pages of the coloring book start the program and grow into the case study sketch pad. Using the flip chart as a guide hardwires the information for the student. The goal is that the student does not lose their way mid-treatment, but if there is a challenge these tools can be present in the procedure to assist. They are wipeable and the stencils and the ruler are autoclavable.
Practice Tattoo Kit
Our starter kit coordinates with our comprehensive program. Teaching the basic steps using colored pencils and then growing into tattooing with hand tools provides a detailed basic education for the beginning technician. Eventually graduating into machine use is our goal. Still, after so many years, I will use hand tools on patients. It is important to know how to use all of the implements the industry offers.
