MT Cosmetics Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; President: Rie Itabashi), the company behind the professional skincare brand MT Metatron, is actively supporting the promotion of "Breast Art Make®," a medical tattooing technique used to reconstruct the areola and nipple lost during breast cancer surgery. The company will host a dedicated training session at its studio on Thursday, June 11, 2026.

This training session is organized by Yoshiko Iwamoto, representative of the general incorporated association "Re." and a specialist in breast art make nursing. Rie Itabashi, President of MT Cosmetics, who has personally experienced a mastectomy of the right breast due to cancer, resonates with Ms. Iwamoto's mission and is providing the venue and support for this initiative. The training is specifically designed for physicians and nurses.

■ Reconstructing the Heart through Breast Reconstruction
Deciding on a mastectomy during breast cancer treatment is a life-altering choice that results in the loss of breast volume as well as the areola and nipple. While surgical procedures can reconstruct the breast's shape, the natural color and appearance of the areola and nipple are often lost. Many patients find it difficult to look at their reflection or avoid public baths and gyms due to self-consciousness. Restoring these features is not just about physical appearance; it is a vital step in psychological recovery, helping patients regain confidence and their smiles.

■ What is Breast Art Make®?
This specialized medical tattooing technique reconstructs the areola and nipple lost to disease or surgery. Using dedicated needles and pigments, practitioners can recreate natural-looking features. Patient feedback indicates that this "final touch" in reconstruction significantly improves Quality of Life (QOL), allowing them to return to daily activities like visiting hot springs or sports gyms without anxiety.
