Book Your ConsultationA City That Moves Fast
& Chooses Deliberately.
Nashville is one of the fastest-growing cities in America — and with that growth has come a sophisticated, ambitious population that knows exactly what it wants and how to find it. From its world-class healthcare industry to its thriving creative scene, Nashville has built a reputation as a city that attracts excellence and expects it in return.
The clients who find Jayd from Nashville are exactly that kind of person. They've done the research, looked past the obvious options, and made a deliberate choice: for something this personal, this permanent, this important — they wanted the best. Not the most convenient. The best.
That's Jayd.
What Is 3D Areola Restoration Tattooing?
3D areola restoration is a specialized micropigmentation technique that uses layered shading, depth, and custom-blended pigments to recreate the natural appearance of a nipple and areola. The result is completely lifelike — dimensional and real — even though the skin itself remains perfectly flat to the touch.
This procedure is most commonly performed for:
- Nipple restoration following mastectomy or lumpectomy
- Completion of breast reconstruction after cancer treatment
- Top surgery tattooing for transgender and non-binary clients
- Corrective work after trauma, burns, or significant scarring
- Symmetry and pigmentation enhancement after breast lift or reduction
Every tattoo is built entirely from scratch — your body, your skin tone, your surgical history, and your personal vision are the only starting point that matters.
Is This the Right Step for You?
3D nipple tattooing may be exactly what you've been looking for if you:
- Have completed a single or double mastectomy and want natural, realistic restoration
- Are a trans man post-top surgery ready to feel fully at home in your own body
- Have scarring, pigment loss, or asymmetry you've been wanting to address
- Have finished breast reconstruction and are ready for that final, completing touch
- Want more defined, symmetrical, or deeper pigmented areolas for your own confidence
Still figuring out if the timing is right? Reach out. Jayd will give you a genuinely honest, no-pressure answer — just a real conversation between two people.
Every Tattoo Is
Entirely Unique
Nashville is a city that has always understood the difference between talent and genius — between someone who can do the job and someone who does it at a level that changes everything. Jayd operates at that second level. Every tattoo she creates starts from a blank canvas and is built entirely around the individual in front of her. No templates, no shortcuts, nothing that looks like it could belong to anyone else.
Nashville clients arrive with a clear vision and high expectations — and Jayd has the artistry and patience to meet both, precisely, every single time.

Custom-blended with precision to your exact skin tone or personal preference.

Your Appointment,
Step by Step
Private Consultation
A calm, unhurried conversation about your goals, your history, and what this step means to you. No rushing, no clinical coldness, no judgment.
Design & Color Match
Every detail is previewed and approved before anything begins. You'll see exactly what your tattoo will look like before a single drop of pigment touches your skin.
The Session
Performed with medical-grade pigments and fully sterile single-use equipment in Jayd's private Gilbert studio. Most sessions run 60–90 minutes.
Aftercare
You'll leave with clear, practical healing instructions and Jayd's full support through every stage of your recovery.
Nashville clients can always count on Jayd's team to work around travel schedules and make the logistics feel completely effortless.
Will It Hurt?
Almost certainly less than you're imagining. Clients who have had mastectomy or top surgery frequently have significantly reduced sensation in the chest area — which makes the experience far more comfortable than a standard tattoo.
Jayd also applies topical numbing at the start of every session. Most Nashville clients who came in nervous leave wondering why they waited as long as they did.
Results & LongevityHow Long Do Results Last?
Color refresh sessions are offered at a reduced rate when it's time to freshen things up.
Transparent, Honest Pricing
Your quote is based entirely on your specific situation — the number of nipples being tattooed, scar complexity, and any custom design elements. Jayd walks you through everything clearly and honestly during your consultation. No vague estimates, no hidden costs, no surprises.

You Are Not Just Welcome Here. You Are Celebrated.
Nashville's LGBTQ+ community is creative, resilient, and an essential part of what makes this city truly great. Jayd's studio is a space where every member of that community is not just welcome but genuinely celebrated. For transgender and non-binary clients navigating the post-top surgery journey, 3D nipple tattooing can be a profoundly affirming step — one that brings the outside finally in line with the inside.
Jayd approaches every trans and non-binary client with deep respect, zero assumptions, and a commitment to creating results that feel completely authentic to who they are. This is a judgment-free space in every sense of the word.
Not Just a Tattoo. An Act of Self-Care.
Nashville is home to one of the nation's most respected healthcare corridors — a city that takes wellness seriously and understands that healing is both clinical and deeply personal. Many Nashville clients approach 3D areola restoration as the final, meaningful step in a long journey — a deliberate, empowering choice to feel complete and fully at home in their own body again.
Jayd sees it exactly the same way. This isn't just a tattoo. It's a decision to show up fully for yourself — and that is always worth making the trip for.
The Journey Is
Easier Than You Think
Nashville International Airport offers multiple daily direct flights into Phoenix Sky Harbor, with a flight time of approximately two hours and forty-five minutes. Jayd's Gilbert studio is just 20–25 minutes from the terminal — making the total journey from Nashville to Gilbert one of the smoothest of any out-of-state client.
Many Nashville clients turn the trip into a short personal retreat — a night or two in Arizona's sunshine, away from the energy of the city, and time completely dedicated to themselves and this next chapter after everything they've carried.
For the follow-up session at 6–8 weeks, most clients plan a second short trip or coordinate both appointments together upfront. Jayd's team will help you figure out whatever makes the most sense for your schedule and your life.
