Many of the world's most renowned doctors and plastic surgeons refer their patients to Athena for cosmetic and corrective tattooing procedures. Most cosmetic tattooists do not have doctors that refer to them; a few have a handful of doctors that refer their patients to them. However, we have not found anyone in the industry with as many world renowned doctor endorsements as Athena.

Athena's Doctor's Endorsements

I have known Athena professionally for eight years and I have referred her the most difficult cases and ones that I did not have any hope in making any improvements and every time she has proven me wrong.  She has the touch and the eye for what she does and I will continue to refer my patients to her.
