"Prior to meeting Lenny, I wasn’t sure that I cared about getting nipple tattoos since I had gone so long without them but afterwards I was blown away at the difference and the way they made me feel “complete”again after my double mastectomy. Lenny is so incredibly talented and kind, he really cares about his clients and it shows. I would recommend him 1000% to anyone! We are so lucky to have his talent in our local area."

Considering Your Journey

What to consider

Embarking on your journey towards restoration, please remember that our specialized nipple tattoo artistry requires a brief 7-10 day recovery period. Additionally, while some insurance policies might support this step of your journey, it's not always guaranteed, so it's worth checking in advance. Rest assured, with Lenny, you're choosing a craftsman known for his impeccable color matching and lifelike 3D outcomes.

Your Path to Healing

How to prepare for a 3D nipple tattoo

To ensure the most seamless results, it's advisable to wait at least three months post-operative. Initiate your transformative journey with an introductory phone conversation with Lenny, setting the stage for a personal and transformative multi-session experience.

In 2014, I was diagnosed with breast cancer and tested positive for the BRACA gene. After undergoing numerous surgeries and chemotherapy, I met Lenny, a talented tattoo artist inspired by his grandmother's breast cancer journey. He specialized in 3D nipple tattooing, helping survivors like me feel complete again. Despite my initial skepticism, Lenny's exceptional work made me feel whole, turning a painful experience into one of regained confidence. I'm deeply grateful to Lenny for helping me reclaim what cancer took away.
