Benefits of 3D Areola Tattooing

3D areola tattooing in Fort Collins creates a life-like appearance, matching your existing nipple and your skin tone.

3D areola tattooing is noninvasive, requires practically no downtime, and delivers faster healing with easier aftercare.
confidence boost
Patients find that bringing back the look of their natural breast delivers a much-deserved sense of normalcy.
How It Works
During your consultation with our permanent makeup artist, we’ll talk through the details of the areola tattooing process and realistic expectations for results. The artist will examine your reconstructed breast, including (if present) the existing breast.
Through specific shading, skin color analysis and matching, and the flexibility to also add color to an existing nipple, you’ll achieve the finishing touch to your breast reconstruction that looks natural and complete.
Get Started
Not sure where to start? You can find the best treatment using our treatment planning tool. Simply input your unique concerns, and we will send you a personalized list of recommended treatments that will help you accomplish your goals.
What to Expect
Our permanent makeup artist will learn more about your medical history during your consultation. We’ll discuss your goals, visually examine your breasts, and create a custom color palette and approach based on your unique needs.
Tattooing takes 15 minutes to an hour, depending on whether both breasts will be treated, and the amount of scar remediation desired. We’ll make sure your experience is as comfortable as possible.
Pre-Treatment Instructions
These instructions will help you achieve the best results with your 3D areola tattooing treatment.
Hydrate Well
Drinking plenty of water will help your skin remain hydrated. This allows the ink to absorb more easily.
Avoid Alcohol
Alcohol thins blood, which can also cause the ink to thin. This can fade the expected color of the areola tattoo.
Be Patient
Reconstruction scars should no longer be red. Tattooing over active healing can damage the skin’s cellular structure.
Post-Treatment Instructions
Here is how you can get the most out of your 3D areola tattooing in Fort Collins.
Wear Cotton
After the first day, switch to wearing a cotton t-shirt as a breathable bandage. Wear the non-stick pad whenever you wear a bra.
No Swimming
Stay away from swimming pools, bathtubs, and hot tubs until the area is fully healed. Showers are perfectly fine.
Don't Scratch
You’ll experience some itching and flaking, which is normal. To avoid any complications, do not scratch the area.

About Xanadu
When Xanadu was first purchased in 2015, we were a relaxing med spa that offered a handful of services.
However, we quickly discovered that our clients were looking for more when it came to their beauty and health. We took the opportunity to grow our skill set and add more technology to our services.
Now, Xanadu offers the largest selection of services, not just in Fort Collins but in the North Denver Area—all to help our clients improve their lives and feel more confident every day.
