Full Circle - Mastectomy Tattoo Documentary
Update: 2023-01-18
Description
Host Michelle Beck welcomes Patrick Norman, Director & Producer, to talk about the amazing documentary “Full Circle.”
About the film: Full Circle reveals how mastectomy tattoos empower breast cancer survivors to see past their scars to finally find the confidence to start dating after cancer, fix bad reconstructive work, and simply feel like themselves again. These tattoos change lives, and these women shared their stories to show others that breast cancer doesn’t have to leave the last mark.
Why make this film? Mastectomies leave women scarred in more ways than one. Often, surgery involves removing nipples and areolae—and with them a profound sense of self.
Doctors can only help so much, typically with more invasive surgeries or basic cosmetic tattoos that look like a pepperoni.
