The Art of Healing,
The Beauty of Closure
Get excited— COMING SOON!
Every scar holds a story — of survival, transformation, and resilience.
Some stories end in pain, others in pride, but at Epilogue Ink, we believe every ending can be rewritten into something beautiful.
Here, the skin becomes a living canvas, and ink becomes the pen that writes the final chapter. Through the artistry of paramedical tattooing and scar restoration, we blend science and creativity to restore not only the skin’s appearance but also the confidence that lives beneath it.
An epilogue is the part of a story that brings peace, resolution, and clarity. It’s not about erasing the past — it’s about honoring it, then giving it a graceful close.
At Epilogue Ink, every session is a collaboration, every client is an author, and every healed canvas is a testament to the strength it took to get here.
Because your story isn’t over — it’s simply ready for its beautiful ending.
MEET YOUR ARTIST
Epilogue Ink was born from the belief that healing isn’t the end of a story —
it’s the beginning of a new one.
I created this space for the moments after. After the diagnosis. After the surgery. After the trauma. After the part of life that tried to define you. Because I believe in the power of reclaiming your body, your story, and your reflection — on your own terms.
My name is Patrina Ryals. I’m a wife, a mother of two, and someone who’s always searched for purpose — a reason to wake up every morning excited, challenged, and ready to make a difference. That desire led me into careers where I could help people directly: first as a personal trainer, and then as a Deputy Sheriff — a role I held with pride for ten years.
But life had a different plan for me.
During my time in law enforcement, I was diagnosed with an autoimmune condition that forced me to confront my own health and wellbeing in ways I never had before. And in the early, beautiful, chaotic years of motherhood, I began to feel a disconnect from my body, my identity, and my sense of self.
The version of me I once knew felt distant.
For the past nine years, I’ve been on a deeply personal journey of healing — physically, emotionally, and spiritually. And through that transformation, I felt a quiet but persistent pull: to help others find their way back to themselves too. That calling led me to paramedical tattooing.
At Epilogue Ink, I specialize in restorative tattooing — including scar and stretch mark camouflage and skin-toned blending — all done with care, precision, and deep respect for the stories we carry on our skin.
My goal is to create a space where healing feels empowering, and where each client feels seen, heard, and honored for exactly who they are, regardless of what they've been through.
This work is personal to me. It’s about more than appearance and vanity — it’s about identity, self-worth, and reclaiming the parts of ourselves that life may have tried to take away.
Investing in yourself and healing doesn’t mean going back to who you were — it means embracing who you’ve become and keeping your head held high in the process.
You deserve to live life outside of the shadows you're hiding in.
Welcome to Epilogue Ink. Let’s begin your next chapter together.
