What Makes This Training Different

 

 

This is not a surface-level class — and it is not limited to one type of restorative work.

 

This advanced paramedical tattoo training is designed for artists, medical professionals, and creatives who want to learn how to work confidently with real skin, real scars, and real people. Beginners are welcomed.

 

Whether you come from tattooing, permanent makeup, esthetics, nursing, plastic surgery environments, or you are completely new to tattooing, this program is personalized to you. With a maximum of two students per class, the training adapts to your background, learning style, and long-term goals.

 

This is intentional. We want you to thrive, not just complete a course.

​

What Hands-On Means in My Class

​

Hands-on means something very specific here. This is a two-person class, and we move like we are working in the field. You are live with me in a real studio, on real client after real client, from the first day to the last.

​

How the Days Run

​

Class starts at 10 AM and ends anywhere between 5 and 7 PM. The end time depends on the clients, because when we are working on a real person, we never leave them halfway done.

​

On the first day, we usually spend an hour or two on color and needles and practice mixing color. Then we start with a client, often within the first couple of hours. There is no fixed schedule, because I work to fit in as many good client cases as I can, and real people's schedules change. Being flexible is part of working with live clients.

​

What You Learn by Doing

​

Areola work

​

How to mix color and create formulas

How to layer color

Which needles to use on which scar types

​

How much pressure to use on different scar types

​

How different scar textures change the protocol

​

Most of the time, we talk through each case, then get right into it, and you learn as we go. You receive the bookwork after enrollment, but the heart of this course is in the chair, working with me. I believe that is how people truly learn.

​

​

​See Real Healing, Not Just Day One

​

Some clients in class are returning after earlier sessions, so you see the work at different stages. You may see how a healed areola looks, how a brachioplasty scar looks after one session, or how a dark scar turned out after it was lightened. Seeing real healing is one of the most important things you can learn.

​

Come Ready to Jump In

​

This class moves quickly, and you will be working on real clients right away. There may be moments you feel challenged or unsure, and that is completely normal. That feeling is part of learning by doing. No one becomes an expert in three days. This class gives you a strong start, and your skills keep growing with practice at home and with every client you take after.

 

A Clinical, Hands-On Course

​

We touch on the basics of how a paramedical tattoo practice runs, but this is not a business or marketing course. You learn how it all runs by being live in it, working alongside me in a real studio on real clients.

Ongoing Support on Areola and Scar Work

​

After class, you have ongoing support on areola and scar work to help you through your cases as you build your skills. It is hands-on, clinical support, focused on the work itself.

​

​

Do I Need a License to Take This Course?

​

Yes. To take my paramedical tattoo training, you must already hold a Florida tattoo license. You will be tattooing real clients during class, and Florida law requires anyone who tattoos in Florida, or works in a tattoo establishment, to hold a Florida tattoo license.

​

If you are coming from another state, you will need to get a Florida tattoo license before class, because you will be tattooing here in my St. Petersburg studio. It costs a little over one hundred dollars, and part of getting it is completing a Florida-approved bloodborne pathogens course, which you can find on the Florida Department of Health website. Call the health department for the current fee and exact steps.

​

Where You Can Work After Training

​

In Florida, you can only tattoo in a place that holds a Florida establishment license. If you plan to open your own studio, you will need an establishment license for your space. If you plan to work inside a med spa or a plastic surgeon's office, make sure that business holds a Florida establishment license before you start.

​

Every state has its own laws. If you will be working back home in another state, check your own state's requirements.

 

 

 

 Comprehensive Areola & Nipple Restoration Training

 

 

While many programs focus primarily on scar camouflage alone, this training places deep emphasis on advanced areola and nipple restoration, an area we are widely known for.

 

Students receive in-depth instruction across multiple areola and nipple modalities, including:

 

• Areola maximization

• Areola minimization

• Natural nipple creation

• Nipple maximization

• Nipple minimization

• Nipple duplication and restorative detailing

 

 

This includes work related to post-mastectomy reconstruction, plastic surgery, asymmetry correction, and natural aesthetic restoration.

 

Areola work is complex, nuanced, and highly specialized. It is not treated as an overview here — it is taught with precision, intention, and respect for the skin.

 

 

 

 True Hands-On Training With Real Cases

 

 

When we say hands-on, we mean real cases — not simulations.

 

Depending on availability during your training dates, hands-on experience may include:

 

• Areola and nipple restoration

• Facelift scar camouflage

• Tummy tuck scar camouflage

• Post-surgical scar work

• Dark scar camouflage

• Complex multi-scar cases

 

 

Students are guided through treatment planning, color science, needle selection, depth control, and decision-making for each individual client.

 

This is how real paramedical tattooing works. No two cases are the same — and learning to adapt is part of mastering this craft.

 

 

 

 Who This Program Is For

 

 

This training is ideal for:

 

• Tattoo artists

• Permanent makeup artists

• Estheticians

• Nurses and medical professionals

• Artists or creatives who want to learn restorative tattooing

• Professionals working with or alongside plastic surgeons

• Individuals who have never tattooed before but want personalized, high-level instruction

 

 

You do not need prior tattoo experience to take this course.

The training is structured around you, your skill level, and your goals.

 

Class sizes are intentionally limited to two students, allowing for private, focused instruction and direct mentorship.

​

You Train on Real Clients

I have hundreds of documented cases from my own clients at Imagine You New, and you learn the same methods I use every week.

You Learn Color

Color is everything in paramedical tattooing. You learn how to read skin undertones, choose the right pigment, and adjust color session after session so scars and areolas blend naturally into the skin.

Small Classes
