On this episode of The Inspired Podcast, Ms Amber Red, Adrienne, Sasha, and our special guest Jeff Simon—owner of Novella Aesthetics—sit down for a real and inspiring conversation.

Jeff has been in the tattoo industry for over 12 years, specializing in realism tattooing, but his journey took a powerful turn when his sister was diagnosed with breast cancer. That moment inspired him to pivot into paramedical tattooing—helping clients with scar camouflage, 3D areolas, nipple revisions, and stretch mark treatments. Alongside his wife Mandy (who manages the business and social media and is currently training to join him in the procedure room), Jeff has built Novella Aesthetics into a studio dedicated to restoring confidence and changing lives.

In this episode, we get personal with Jeff about his life, his move to Las Vegas, what it’s like traveling between Washington and Nevada, and how he found his apprenticeship in paramedical tattooing. He shares his passion for the tattoo industry, his background in realism, and how it all connects to the work he’s doing today. Plus, we dive into the product he created—FlexaDerm, a medical-grade, sterile bandage designed to protect minor injuries from water and bacteria.

If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to transition from traditional tattooing into the world of paramedical tattooing, build a business with purpose, or hear from someone who’s using art to heal, this episode is for you.

P.s. Jeff is looking to build his portfolio! If you or someone you know could use his services, be sure to follow him on social media:
