Why People from Scottsdale Choose Jayd Hernandez

Scottsdale clients trust Jayd not only because of her reputation for beautiful, ultra-realistic results but also because of the care she brings to every session.

She has extensive experience with:

  • Nipple tattoos after mastectomy or lumpectomy

  • Artistic and custom areola tattoos

People from Scottsdale often say it’s worth the short drive to work with someone who treats each tattoo as both an art form and a meaningful part of emotional healing.

  • Want to revise or restore the appearance of your areolas

Custom Tattoo Designs

From matching a previous areola to creating a brand-new one from scratch, Jayd works closely with clients to choose:

  • Size and shape

  • Color tone and blend

  • Position and orientation

  • Artistic additions like flower-inspired or abstract forms

Some clients from Scottsdale request subtle, natural work, while others choose creative interpretations that blend well with breast lift or reconstruction scars.

What the Process Looks Like

  • Consultation – Jayd takes time to learn your story and assess your skin, healing stage, and goals.

  • Design Session – You’ll preview pigments, nipple shape, and placement.

  • Tattooing – Most appointments last 1–2 hours and use topical numbing cream.

  • Aftercare – You’ll receive a step-by-step healing guide and have access to support.

How Painful Is It?

Surprisingly, many clients—especially those who’ve had mastectomies—report little to no discomfort. Jayd uses gentle, advanced techniques and numbing cream to minimize sensation. Clients from Scottsdale often say they expected worse and were pleasantly surprised.

What About Cost?

The cost of a 3D nipple tattoo varies depending on:

  • Whether you need one or both sides tattooed

  • Scar tissue conditions

  • If it’s a revision, new design, or touch-up

Jayd offers upfront pricing and breaks everything down clearly during your consultation. While her studio isn’t in Scottsdale, the value and results make the visit well worth it.

Healing, Touch-Ups, and Longevity

One follow-up session may be needed, depending on your skin. Most tattoos last 3–5 years before subtle fading occurs. Jayd offers affordable touch-ups to keep your tattoo looking fresh for the long haul.
