Andrea Bradley Stutz Talks About the Komen Tissue Bank at OLOGY

FREE treatments for a GREAT cause!

OLOGY Spa at Clarian North recently hosted another wonderfully successful tissue donation event for the Indiana University Tissue Bank at the Simon IU Cancer Center. On February 16, 2008, over thirty women literally 'gave of themselves' to help build the bank of healthy breast tissue used to further breast cancer research and help find a cure.

The Susan G. Komen for the Cure Tissue Bank was created in response to a need by scientists carrying out breast cancer research: understanding what is abnormal in breast cancer is slowed down by our lack of knowledge about what is normal. By collecting tissue from women with and without breast cancer, or with a variety of benign breast conditions, scientists will be able to determine differences which ultimately could lead to a better understanding of the breast cancer process.

OLOGY was proud to host the very first tissue bank donation event ever to take place in the world last year. We were humbled by the overwhelming response from women willing to undergo the simple needle biopsy necessary to harvest their healthy breast tissue. Donors were treated to complimentary spa treatments after every biopsy, creating a fabulous 'girl's day out' atmosphere -all for a wonderful cause!

OLOGY will host the next donation event on May 10, 2008 from 8am until 3pm at our Clarian West location, and again on September 20 at our Clarian North location. This is an utterly personal and unique way to contribute to the fight against breast cancer and we welcome your participation!

Correctional Permanent Makeup Indianapolis

Permanent makeup performed with pigments containing iron oxides may eventually turn eyebrows pink or orange or lips blue. Pigment migration is also possible, which leads to color spreading to unwanted areas. Such mishaps are not uncommon due to the use of iron oxide pigments and body tattoo ink used for micropigmentation. At Ology we use pigments free of these types of pigments to enhance the lasting effects of permanent makeup. As research continues in cosmetic tattooing more and more correctional options are becoming available to technicians.

There are several questions the technician will need to know before deciding how perform a correctional procedure. First, how long ago was the procedure performed? This will determine if the patient is fully healed. Next, what color was originally applied? Also, it is helpful if the patient knows the type of pigment that was used in the original procedure. And last, what color does the patient want?

Correctional permanent makeup can take several treatments depending on the amount of change needed. With each treatment the unwanted color is lightened and lifted. Then the correct color can be implanted over the desired area. Although the process can be lengthy, the end result is worth the wait.
