Common Setup Questions

What makes areola pigments different from standard PMU pigments?
Post-surgical skin is more reactive than standard skin — areola pigments require higher safety certification (EU REACH, ISO), heavy metal-free formulation, and hypoallergenic ingredients. The color range is also specific: rose-brown-peach tones calibrated for natural areola matching rather than the bold colors used in lip or brow work. The ProShade Optical Layering System supports translucent layering and buildable opacity for the gradual approach required in areola restoration.

How does the pigment behave on scar tissue?
Post-surgical scar tissue can retain pigment differently from non-scarred skin due to differences in skin density and scar tissue structure. The ProShade formula is designed for controlled layering and progressive color building, allowing artists to adjust tone and density gradually throughout multiple restoration sessions rather than attempting full saturation in a single pass.

How do I select the right shade for each client?
Assess the client’s existing areola color (if present on the unaffected side) in natural lighting before selecting shades. Match to the client’s natural areola tone rather than general skin tone — areola color varies significantly even within the same skin tone range. Use Soft Orange to correct any cool or gray shift in the custom blend.

Can the shades be mixed for custom colors?
Yes. All ProShade shades are fully compatible for custom blending. Document all mixing ratios carefully — areola restoration requires multiple sessions and tone continuity between sessions is critical for long-term tone consistency.

How many sessions does areola restoration require?
2–3 sessions for optimal results. Session 1 establishes base color and shape. Session 2 (6–8 weeks later) refines depth and tone based on the healed result. Session 3 is optional for additional tonal refinement. Set realistic expectations at consultation — final results are assessed after full healing of the last session.

Is special training required?
Yes. Areola restoration is a paramedical tattooing service requiring specific training in post-surgical skin behavior, scar tissue response, color matching for skin-tone replication, and client consultation for post-surgical clients. The ProShade set provides the pigments — ensure appropriate training and certifications are in place before offering this service.

Why powder-hybrid formula for areola work?
The powder-hybrid formula creates microfine particle dispersion that supports translucent layering and buildable opacity — essential for achieving natural healed appearance in areola restoration. Compatible with both manual and machine application techniques.
