FAQ

How it works

Step 1

Prior consultation

At the Omicron clinic, the first step in the artistic 3D tattooing procedure is a consultation to discuss the desired shape, color and texture of the tattoo, in order to obtain the most realistic representation in line with the patient's expectations and morphology.

Step 2

Tattooing procedure

During this stage, the patient will be comfortably seated in a semi-recumbent position. Tattooing is carried out quickly, as breast tissue cannot withstand lengthy procedures. Needles and colors are adapted for a natural effect. During the session, there's plenty of time for conversation and relaxation. The result can be viewed in front of a mirror. Advice on post-tattoo care will be given, as healing takes around three weeks, with a final result after a month.

Step 3

Tattoo touch-ups

This stage consists of a second tattooing session to carry out touch-ups in case the evolution of the tattoo has altered colors and contrasts. This may be necessary around 3 months after the first session, when it can be seen that colors have lightened by around 20-30%. Touch-ups can include contrast modification and a slight change in areola shade.

Pain is minimized by the application of an anesthetic cream. Most patients experience slight discomfort, but the process is well tolerated.

The session lasts between 120 and 150 minutes, depending on the complexity and touch-ups required.

Yes, the result is visible immediately, but the final color is adjusted after complete healing, about 30 days after the session.

Gently clean the area, apply a healing ointment, avoid sun exposure and bathing, and wear soft clothing.

Risks are rare, but can include infections, allergic reactions to pigments, or color variations. Medical follow-up is recommended in the event of complications.
