2. SECTION TWO: cathi.ink Areola Procedure specifics
Topical anesthetics are applied before and during the procedure for client comfort with a sterile environment inside the procedure room where single-use, disposable needles are used. I travel where and when needed including using your OR or Exam room for your patients who do not wish to travel to Shoreline, Wa.
Breast Cancer Survivors decide whether to give written permission to cathi.ink to use their photos in all forms of promotion, including the website, written articles, books, presentations and samples for other BCS’s. Medical release forms for permission purposes are signed and filed. All areola patient photos on this site have given permission.
Cathi.ink provides semi-permanent cosmetics of the face: eyebrows and lips.
The cathi.ink Areola Procedure fee is the same for unilateral or bilateral: $750 per session
I am an out of network provider. Patients pay out of pocket for the procedure with 50% deposit due upon securing appointment times, and the remaining 50% paid after first session when services are rendered. Cathi.ink works with needful, willing patients to set up payment plans that help ease the financial responsibility and offers discounts when possible per each client’s needs.
Scar camouflage is offered for scars outside of the areola perimeter at $300, also done at the same time as the areola/nipple sets.
Areola and nipple Repair with Micropigmentation is done when surgery is exhausted and no other artists or medical professional can provide solutions. Pricing is set individually depending on the severity of the case but base price starts at $850. Repair straightens the breasts with symmetry, evens out uneven areolas, nipples and scars, puts everything back as close as possible to what was there before, with permanent ink.
3. SECTION THREE: No reconstruction, No implants patients....
Cathi.ink offers a new service for double mastectomy no reconstruction patients to choose a permanent, beautiful option for whole breast replication of the skin: 7th Dimension Illusion BreastmoundsTM. (See more under No Recon, no implants header above). This virtual whole breast replication procedure consists of two full breasts (with areola’s and nipples) implanted with Micropigmention onto the flat chest barrel of the androgynous female, creating 7th Dimension Illusion BreastmoundsTM that appear real, round and protruding – tricking the eye into believing that both breasts are actually, physically present (when they are not). Both illusions of breasts with areolas and nipples look 3D even when the patient turns to the side. The 3D illusion holds at a sideways glance and goes beyond the third dimension and into another one all together by taking photorealism off the canvas and literally onto living skin creating what I like to call: 7th Dimension Illusion BreastmoundsTM. 7th Dimension Illusion BoustierTM involves regular tattoos over the breastmound implants in the form of decorative mastectomy covers simulating a bra, or corset or any piece of lingerie in the chosen style of the patient.
Cathi Locati seeks innovative, forward thinking Medical Professionals to include cathi.ink corp as an integral part of their surgical team. Micropigmentation providers across the country are joining and "completing" surgical teams in offering a 'one stop shop' for survivors to be made whole again from beginning to end, including one of the most important, most visibly aesthetic steps during of reconstruction, the very last step, the end game - adding full color areola's and nipples.
