A medical tattoo usually heals in two to four weeks, although this may vary dependent upon other factors, such as age, and skin types.

Patients must follow the post-tattoo care instructions during recovery.

After getting your medical tattoo, we recommend leaving on the breathable bandage.

Excess ink and a clear liquid may be seen oozing from the tattoo, but both are entirely normal. Itching, warmth, and slight redness of the skin are also possible.

We recommend to gently wash the tattoo with antimicrobial soap, and apply a water-based ointment.

The tattoo should feel less tender and red after the first few days. As time passes, a camouflage tattoo’s color will change colors. This is normal and indicates that the tattoo is healing.

We recommend not to pick or scratch at the scar during the healing process as Scarring may occur. Itching of the skin is another common symptom at this point.

You may notice some peeling around the tattoo, which is part of the healing process because it enables the skin to shed damaged cells. This can occur a few days after receiving a tattoo, as the skin exfoliates and produces new cells.

We recommend washing the tattooed area with an antimicrobial soap and moisturizing 1-2 times daily.

Within this timeframe, most if not all of the scabs and peeling skin should have disappeared.

If the skin feels dry, we recommend you continue to moisturize it and apply ointment.

The outer layers of the skin regenerate the fastest. Deeper skin layers may take several months to heal.

During the third week if the tattoo is no longer an open wound, we recommend a broad-spectrum sunscreen with a minimum SPF of 30 should be applied. Apply it at least 15 minutes before heading outdoors, and reapply it every couple of hours.

Infections can be caused by lack of proper tattoo hygiene, which can significantly slow healing and even cause serious health problems.

Allergic reactions to tattoo ink are typically most common during the first few days and weeks. This is due to the red, blue, and green tattoo inks, which carry a greater chance of causing an allergic reaction. Although allergic reactions to tattoos are extremely rare.

The presence of pain and swelling, however, may be an indication of inflammation and infection in the tattoo. Anyone experiencing this should seek medical attention right away.

Exfoliate before to get rid of any dead skin cells on your body.

Shave/wax areas, no laser treatments at least 4-6 weeks before working on the treated area

No tanning for 2 weeks.

Please make sure your skin is not tanned so that we can match your correct skin tone.

Try and have no alcohol a couple of days before & NO blood thinners 3 days before your appointment

Wear loose clothes the day of the appointment; the areas treated will be slightly tender.

No Antibiotics 20 days before treatment and 40 days after the treatment can slow down the healing process.

No Intense Working out. Weight lifting and strenuous exercise should be avoided at least 3 days before your session. Putting strain on your muscles can cause swelling and soreness, which may heighten the sensation of the tattoo and increase healing time.

If you're menstruating please plan accordingly for procedure dates to avoid added discomfort.

For the initial 48 hours, avoid wearing tight clothing to allow the area to breathe. When returning home, remove the bandages. Ensure your hands are clean before touching the tattooed area. Gently cleanse your new tattoo with lukewarm water and unscented soap or cleanser. Apply the provided aftercare product in a thin layer after cleaning. Repeat this process in the morning and evening and continue for a minimum of 5 days.

No swimming in pools, hot tubs, or bodies of water for 5 days. Stay away from UV exposure, including tanning booths until fully healed. Do not scratch, pick, or peel dry skin or flakiness let it heal on its own.
