Dedication
To Those Walking the Cancer Journey,
In these pages, I share with you not just my expertise in medical tattooing, but my deepest commitment to being a part of your healing journey. Each stroke of pigment is more than just colour on skin—it is a step toward reclaiming what cancer has tried to take away, a brushstroke in the masterpiece of your resilience.
To every warrior who has sat in my chair, sharing their stories, fears, and hopes: you have taught me that true healing is as much about restoring the spirit as it is about transforming the physical. Your courage has been my greatest teacher, your smiles my greatest reward.
This book is dedicated to every patient who has trusted me with their story, to every survivor who has shown me the true meaning of strength, and to those still finding their way through the storm. May these pages offer you not just information, but also comfort, understanding, and most importantly, hope.
In our journey together, may you find both the practical guidance you seek and the emotional support you deserve. Let this be more than a book—let it be a companion on your path to healing, a testament to your resilience, and a reminder that you are never alone.
With warmth in my heart and dedication to your journey,
Sylvia Sumara-Loukam

Treatments
Supportive Aesthetic Treatments for Cancer Patients: Before and After Care
Pre-Treatment Services
Before beginning cancer treatment, many patients wish to prepare for the physical changes ahead. We offer several preventive procedures that can help maintain appearance and boost confidence throughout the treatment journey:
Eyebrow Microblading
Prior to chemotherapy, we recommend preserving your natural eyebrow shape through microblading. This advanced semi-permanent makeup technique creates natural-looking eyebrow strokes that remain visible throughout treatment. The procedure is particularly beneficial as it:
- Maintains facial definition during hair loss
- Reduces the daily stress of makeup application during treatment
- Provides long-lasting results that can carry patients through their recovery period


Eyelash Enhancement
Our specialized eyelash enhancement treatment helps define the eye area before hair loss occurs. This subtle yet effective procedure:
- Creates the appearance of fuller, darker lashes
- Reduces dependency on mascara during treatment
- Helps maintain facial features that cancer treatment may temporarily affect


Post-Surgery Reconstructive Services
Following surgery and chemotherapy, we offer a comprehensive range of reconstructive procedures designed to support healing and restore confidence:
Areola and Nipple Reconstruction
For patients who have undergone mastectomy or breast reconstruction, our advanced medical tattooing techniques can create remarkably natural-looking areolas and nipples. This procedure:
- Provides the finishing touch to breast reconstruction
- Creates three-dimensional effects through specialized pigmentation techniques
- Helps restore body confidence and sense of wholeness
- Can be performed once surgical sites are fully healed


Surgical Scar Camouflage
Our innovative scar camouflage treatments help minimize the appearance of surgical scars through:
- Custom colour matching to blend with surrounding skin
- Advanced pigmentation techniques to break up scar tissue appearance
- Gradual building of colour for natural-looking results
