The nipple may be the last place you’d think of getting a tattoo but for a group of Australian women, it may just change their lives.
Sydney mum Sam Taylor is organising a mass nipple-tattooing session with a world-renowned artist for women who have had breast cancer. Many of us know someone affected by the disease, but what you may not realise is that nipples are usually removed during mastectomies and are not necessarily part of a breast reconstruction. “A little of the breast cancer can be present in part of the nipple and for most of us, that’s not a risk we’re prepared to take,” explains Ms Taylor, a breast cancer survivor.
