If this is a cosmetic or paramedical tattooing service: Do you have previous work from another artist?

Previous Work

At Resilient Artistry, healing and creativity come together. Led by Melissa Stetson, BSN, MSN-FN, RN, registered nurse and highly trained paramedical and cosmetic tattoo artist, the studio specializes in 3D areola restoration, scar camouflage, and cosmetic tattooing designed to help clients reclaim confidence, wholeness, and a sense of self after trauma, surgery, or life-changing medical experiences, or simply to enhance your natural beauty!

With more than a decade of experience doing extensive work with trauma survivors, oncology patients, and surgical patients, Melissa brings a uniquely compassionate and clinically informed approach to every service. Her practice is rooted in safety, warmth, and dignity, creating a space where every client is seen, supported, and genuinely cared for.

Whether you’re seeking natural-looking areola restoration after breast cancer, softening and blending of surgical or injury-related scars, or enhancing your features with cosmetic tattooing, each appointment is personalized and guided by a deep understanding of anatomy, healing, and aesthetic balance.

Melissa believes tattooing can be a powerful form of rebirth, a way to close a chapter, honor the body, and move forward with renewed confidence. At Resilient Artistry, you are welcomed into a safe, inclusive environment where your story, comfort, and healing matter.

Explore services, book with confidence, and experience tattooing that goes beyond skin deep.

Melissa Hagen creates such a comforting and welcoming environment — not only for the LGBTQ community, but for everyone who walks through her door. Her fun personality and respectful professionalism turn what can be a vulnerable experience into something genuinely pleasant.

This tattoo meant the world to me, and the moment I saw her work on social media, I knew I chose the right artist to bring my vision to life. Melissa executed it perfectly.

A huge thank you and so much gratitude to Melissa 

I cannot say enough wonderful things. I was very hesitant about doing this, I booked two other people and ended up cancelling. In February I went for my appointment after reviewing her work,  and was beyond happy with the results. She listened to what I wanted and didn’t push me in another direction. I wanted natural microblading. After healing I realized I wanted shading added, she without hesitation said no problem. I love the results! 

Melissa is an amazing artist and medical professional.  She creates a comfortable, clean and fun atmosphere.   

So happy with the whole experience and end result. 10/10 ! 

Melissa is extremely talented and has been a huge inspiration for many people 

Love my lip blush! Melissa is such an artist, she really gives you a beautiful result.  So kind , friendly and knowledgeable, so happy I found her!

Melissa is amazing. She is kind, patient, and listens to what you want.  She has an amazing eye for detail and care for every step. Would recommend anyone thinking of getting lip blush done to see her. 

I immediately felt welcomed by her kind energy and custom sign 

I had my follow up lip blush with Melissa today. Both times she’s been very friendly, professional and super precise with the tattoo. I’d definitively recommend seeing her for your PMU!

Melissa is just wonderful. Her services are affordable. She provides the highest level of customer service, making you feel so comfortable with both her personable demeanor as well as with thoughtful personalized little details in her room. Like a greeting sign with your name on it for example. The space is very clean yet simultaneously inviting; with fun decorations. Then of course there is the work itself. Melissa is an artist! 


Melissa was great and she did a fantastic job!   I now have eyebrows again after years of having to pencil them in.  

Amazing experience and even better outcome. Melissa was great and I’m obsessed with my new eyebrows! Thank you Melissa! 

I loved the service 
I love my eyebrows
100 percent recommended
