About Us
I would like to introduce myself and give you a little bit of background about who I am and how Lincolnshire Mastectomy Art came to be.
My name is Kaz, originally from the seaside town of Scarborough in North Yorkshire, I moved to Lincolnshire at a young age.
I have always had a passion for art, especially graphite drawings and watercolour paintings. My artwork has been sold privately and also donated to fundraisers to help raise funds at auction for Lincolnshire air ambulance.
I have been working in the tattoo industry for 8 years and have been lucky to work alongside and make friends with some amazing artists.
I met my now husband in his studio (Dragonart Tattoo Studio), he took me under his wing and encouraged me to grow my talents.
In 2018 I had a lady request I preform an areola tattoo on her after she had been through the horrendous ordeal of battling breast cancer, mastectomy surgery and reconstruction. I realised at this point that she was not the only person seeking this service and I started to research nipple tattooing in the UK. What I found was a country crying out for permanent, realistic 3D nipple tattoos.
That is when I decided I needed to help these amazing people. To offer them a choice, to give them hope and confidence. More than that, I wanted them to feel empowered and feel able to love their bodies again.
In 2019 I received in-depth training from a world renowned tattoo artist and specialist nipple and areola tattoo artist. Since then I have gone on to complete other training to maintain and progress my knowledge and skills in this field.
I bring both traditional tattooing and also specialist skills to my clients. This means I can offer my clients a wealth of knowledge and experience to produce an end result high above the UK industry standard.
My work started out with the sole purpose of helping and empowering breast cancer survivors. As the business has developed I found that it was not just breast cancer survivors who required my help. Burn victims, Botched breast enhancement and reduction where the areola and nipple has been lost, Post operation FTM /MTF mastectomy or augmentation and much more. Every person deserves to feel and look the way they would like to.
Please head over to the Treatments page for more information about the services I offer.
I am the ONLY trained and certified tattoo artist in Lincolnshire who offers permanent areola tattooing.
I am certified in areola tattooing after extensive training. Along with my areola tattoo training I have a level 2 certificate in first aid, Bloodbourne pathogens, COSHH,Hand hygiene, Infection control and cross contamination, which can all be seen displayed in my work space. The studio is also fully licensed and inspected, so you can rest at ease knowing you are in safe hands.
