Be by la chauve-sourit is an initiative founded by Laura Da Silva, a specialized nurse, paramedical tattoo artist, and former oncology patient. Her personal and professional journey inspires a deeply human approach focused on body reconstruction, self-reconciliation, and emotional healing.
Trained in artistic and paramedical tattooing, image consulting, mental coaching, and hypnosis, Laura uses her skills to support people who have gone through medical challenges such as breast cancer, burns, or major surgeries.
She offers three main services:
- Scar camouflage tattooing (restorative tattooing, therapeutic tattooing),
- Nipple and areola reconstruction after mastectomy,
- A holistic support combining mental coaching, post-cancer image consulting, and empathic listening to help regain self-esteem.
Driven by a passion for the human body, art, and care, Laura transforms every scar into a living work of art — a symbol of resilience and inner beauty. The name Be by la chauve-sourit evokes the journey from darkness to light, a reflection of rebirth after hardship.
This approach goes far beyond a simple artistic act: it is a form of personal expression, where pain is transformed into art and reconstruction becomes an act of self-love.
