You guys are so cute.....Warrior and AZ!! Thank you. I'll be posting pictures on the other site when I'm done.

Warrior, when is your new appointment to see Vinnie?

Happy Spring - I crossed the finish line a few weeks ago. I have my Vinnies! I was so excited I posted my pics here: Showing Off

Maybe posting pics is not the thing to do on BCO but my husband reminds me that there is enough out there on the internet that no one is really going to care about me.

Warrior.....I went to the link to see your pictures and this shot out of my mouth "Holy Sh*t"!!!! You look so freaking amazing! I thought I was looking at something in Playboy. Wow. They look real. And your boobs, just beautiful. Congratulations on being done!

Happy Spring - Vinnie and I were joking that they now look better than before I got cancer. After all, I'm 54 and they were heading south quickly. I remember back to when my skin was glued to my ribs and I doubted if I would ever have boobs again. Seeing Vinnie was my celebration. Good luck!

I'M DDDOOONNNNEEEE!!!! Went to see Vinnie on Friday last week at his shop! His daughter, Anna, actually tattoo me. Vinnie was right there to consult with her on the colors and positioning of the tattoo. Anna did a fabulous job! Everyone at the shop is so kind and loving! I highly recommend going to them. The process made me anxious but Anna was so sweet that I relaxed through it. Again, great experience!

Hello Ladies,

I had my 3D nipple tattoos done by Renee Maschinot on October 24, 2016 one year after my revision surgery. Thank goodness the 2nd PS did an excellent revision/reconstruction. Vinnie is good friends with her and he recommends her for this procedure. She travels on the southeast coast from Florida to South Carolina. She also has a tattoo studio in Ft. Lauderdale FL. I was on her waiting list at Sweetgrass Plastic Surgery in Summerville SC for over one year so when I received the phone call from Sweetgrass Plastic Surgery saying she had an appointment open I was surprised. The result is amazing! It hurt really bad and I was surprised that I had that much feeling in my chest area but it was well worth the pain. I look in the mirror and see a pair of boobs that look better than the real ones!

I'm three years out from my tattoos. They have not faded at all that I can tell. Honestly I rarely think about them not being the real thing. Vinnie's work is amazing.

I'm so excited to get to see Vinnie next month!!!! Yay;)

I'm a year and a half out from my tattoos by Vinnie here in So Cal. They are still perfect and my BS was impressed with Vinnie's work

kingster

I'm so stoked!! Can't wait!

kingster - When's your date with Vinnie? We might as well all get stoked for you! My Vinnies are a couple months short of two years old (1/7/15) and look exactly the same as when they were inked. So I'm excited FOR you! You won't regret it; for sure.

AZ, I see Vinnie in 18 days!!! On Nov 22😁 Love the bat man;) He's my son-in-law's favorite, lol. That is so encouraging about hearing how they don't fade out;) I know it's so expensive, and my insurance refuses to pay because Vinnie isn't a "health care authorized provider"...but hubby is supportive and knows that I really want to look "finished". I've been dreaming about getting my nipples back since my diagnosis.

AZ85048

kingster - In your pocket on the 22nd! And don't forget to report back when you're 'finished'. Vinnie is such a hoot! You're going to be thoroughly entertained!

I got my Vinnie's today! We arrived 4 hours early cuz I was so excited. We first met Trent and talked for a while. Very nice guy;) We came back for our appt, filled out paperwork, took before pics and was off and running. I brought pics from my ps of my pre bmx self and showed them to Vinnie. He was so fast at mixing the colors. It's like "he's done this a million times". I did have burning and stinging, but Vinnie moves so fast that he doesn't stay in one area for long. He also seemed to give me a little break. What's also pretty cool, is that Vinnie can carry on conversation the whole time (esp with my hubby) and never miss a beat. Then after pics by Anna, dressings on, after care explained, some quick pics with Vinnie and out the door. It stung for a few hours, but now is just itchy a little. Supplies provided in a cute "tattoo the ta tas bag". Was surprised how much I actually did feel. Even stung all the way toward my armpits. Looks very realistic and improved the look of the foobs so much. My hubby said it was like Vinnie "brought them to life". We had a 4 hour drive each way. Ladies from Colorado and Atlanta were there too! Vinnie said he does 5 tattoos/ day and his partners do 3-5/day. It's a very busy place. Makes you realize how much breast cancer is out there. It's unreal.
