Permanently Beautiful

A nationally recognized expert in the field of permanent makeup and paramedical tattooing, Melany Whitney’s expertise and knowledge are frequently solicited by national television, print and radio media. A featured guest on Sirius Satellite Radio’s Doctor Radio, Melany has been interviewed about the advantages of permanent makeup by ET, Inside Edition, CNN and NBC’s Today Show, among others. Her renowned artistry and well-deserved reputation as “the Voice of Permanent Makeup” have made Melany a much-quoted source on the subject of permanent cosmetics. Melany’s comments on permanent cosmetics have been featured in national beauty and fashion magazines including Elle and New Beauty.

Melany’s ground-breaking paramedical tattoo work with breast cancer survivors undergoing breast reconstruction surgery led her to develop a unique three-dimensional tattooing technique that creates a realistic-looking nipple and areola. An achievement that has provided tremendous personal satisfaction, Melany’s new reconstructive tattooing technique had given breast cancer survivors renewed self-confidence in their appearance after breast removal and reconstruction.

A pioneer in the field of permanent makeup for men, Melany was recently asked by Flash News to discuss the sensitive issue of malformed male nipples and whether the use of corrective paramedical tattooing could correct the problem. New Moon star Robert Pattinson is just one of many men who suffer from uneven, malformed or too small male nipples. The same permanent makeup techniques Melany developed to assist breast cancer survivors can be applied to the sensitive issue of malformed male nipples.
