At Garnet Tattoo, we specialize in restorative tattoos for those who’ve undergone phalloplasty surgery. This work is personal—and we take it seriously.
We’re proud to offer ethical pricing to ensure this service is accessible to those who need it most.
TRANSFORMATION
“Working with Shane to have micropigmentation tattooing has provided me a way to mentally connect with my penis. I no longer have dysphoria. I have gender euphoria.”

2 sessions are typically needed to achieve desired effect.
Deposit: $200
TO BE CLEAR: ETHICAL PRICING
This isn’t a quiet promise. It’s a loud stand.
Tattoo artists and medical providers across the country often charge thousands for this same restorative work. We think that’s exploitative—especially after everything you’ve already been through.
We’re not here to squeeze you.
We’re here to help you heal.
That’s why we’ve committed to transparent, accessible pricing—and why we’re proud to be one of the only studios in the country taking a stand.
