A woman who aids breast cancer survivors in the St. Louis area by creating tattoos of the nipple and areola after reconstructive surgery was booted from Facebook for showing examples of her work.

The “Tattoos by Kerry Soraci” page has since been restored, and Facebook has apologized.

The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reported that Facebook told Soraci that the photos she was sharing did not meet “community standards.”

“Your account has been disabled for not following the Facebook Community Standards, and we won’t be able to reactivate it,” Facebook’s Steven Parker wrote in a response to Soraci. “We disable accounts that solicit others or feature content that is sexually suggestive/contains nuditFacebook told Soraci that the social media site disables accounts that solicit others or feature content that is sexually suggestive or contains nudity.”

Soraci says the photos she posts promote her business and educate women about post-surgery options.

In addition, Soraci’s personal Facebook page had been shut down as had the page for her other businesses, I Scream Cakes and Kaleidoscope Ceilings, because she is the administrator of those pages as well. All of her pages were up and running Friday.
