  • "Carly gave me back something that was taken away from me with my breast cancer. I love my 3D nipples. They are perfect, I asked for pretty pink nips and that is what she gave me. Now when I look at myself in the mirror, I don’t notice the scars. I just smile because Carly made it easier to feel a little normal again. Even my Dr. was blown away when she saw how real they looked."

    Kristi

  • "I came to Carly at Revival Skin + Artistry for an Areola Correction following breast reduction surgery about 10 years ago. My left nipple had very little definition around the entire edge due to scarring, and Carly recommended scar reduction microneedling + corrective tattooing. Now, about 6 months later, I am SO happy with my results! My nipple is actually defined and the color looks almost exactly like my natural skin tone, I honestly have a hard time telling which areas are pigment and which are my actual skin."

    Kelly

  • "I am so impressed with my tattoos, they look so natural and feel great. It was easy to schedule and Carly’s insurance billing service told me about a grant to get my nipple tattoos covered if I qualified. I was able to qualify and am so grateful for Carly’s expertise."

    Carmel

  • "I had reconstructed surgery for my left breast which was removed post-cancer. I set an appointment with Carly to review her portfolio for areola tattoo. Not only is she the coolest person, but her prices were reasonable and her work was phenomenal. There was no hesitation she made me feel really comfortable and her work exceeded my expectations. To top it off she now is one of the only tattoo artists for this type of work that works with an insurance biller to get reimbursed. I can't say enough good things about her, always professional, and you absolutely can't tell from a distance or close up this is a tattoo. She is amazing, I feel whole again. "
