Sheila Mattingly is a registered nurse, certified nurse injector, and certified cosmetic tattoo artist at Rewind Health™ & Wellness by Sharicom Health® in Lexington, Kentucky.

Certified Nurse Injector

A nurse injector is an RN or APRN specializing in aesthetic beauty services such as Botox® neurotoxin injections and dermal fillers.

Certified Cosmetic Tattoo Artist

Cosmetic tattoo artists offer permanent, cosmetic tattoo services like eyebrow microblading, lip color enhancements, blush coloring, freckles and eyeliner as well as restorative services like scar camouflage or areola tattooing for breast cancer survivors.

The goal of a cosmetic tattoo artist is to create a natural-looking tattoo that most would mistake for makeup or an existing feature, whereas a traditional tattoo artist aims to provide a creative, illustrative design to decorate the body of the wearer.

Services:

Brow Lamination

For a bushy, stylized look, brow lamination is the way to go. The results of brow lamination can last six to eight weeks and the service is commonly done in tandem with eyebrow tinting.

Microblading

Microblading is a semi-permanent tattoo that uses multiple needles to implant pigment beneath the skin. Microblading can give the look of hair strokes in areas lacking natural hair and can be offered in many different brow styles, including clean, defined, arched, or fluffy. It’s an excellent option for anyone who wants a fuller-looking brow or has lost brow hair. And the tattoo is fairly easy to maintain — it can last anywhere from one to five years. (more)

Brow Tinting

Brow tinting, which is typically done with brow lamination, darkens both the natural eyebrow hairs and surrounding skin to achieve a more defined or intense-looking brow. Brow tint can last on the hairs for up to eight weeks, while the stain on the skin can fade within the first week. Lamination and tinting are both great services for those looking to dip their toes into something less permanent, but can be also done on someone with microbladed brows to complement their healed hair strokes and keep them looking fresh.

Freckles

Faking the appearance of freckles with makeup has become pretty popular recently, but getting them tattooed on may be something to consider if you’re looking for a more permanent freckle fix. Freckles can be tattooed on the face to create a youthful, sun-kissed look and are a great option for those who want to go makeup-free. Freckles can be done virtually anywhere on the body including the shoulders, neck and arms and can be created in an array of natural colors, opacities and even shapes such as little hearts. They are permanent, but can fade with regular sun-exposure, face exfoliants and brightening products.

Permanent Makeup

If you wear the same shade of lipstick every day or won’t leave the house without winged liner, a permanent makeup tattoo might be right for you. A soft wash of color over the lips can look so beautiful as well as help correct any unevenness. Tattooed eyeliner is becoming increasingly popular, and when done with precision, it can be incredibly effective in darkening and defining the lash line to make eyes pop. (more)

Areola Tattooing

Areola tattooing is a restorative, cosmetic tattoo service that is generally offered to those who have undergone a mastectomy due to breast cancer and those who have experienced burns or other traumatic scarring. (more)

Scar Camouflage

Scar camouflage, which can be done on stretch marks, acne scars or surgical scars, is a tattoo service that lightly smooths and blends scars into the surrounding skin. This service is most effective if the scar or area of pigmentation loss is lighter than the area around it.

Permanent Makeup Micropigmentation is the process of placing pigment into the epidermis. This process is considered a tattoo. These pigments can last a few years or indefinitely, depending on skin tone and the intensity of the color used. Certain skin types and tones may require an occasional touch-up to prolong the procedure’s results.
