Cosmetic Tattoo Aftercare Instructions

Aftercare is the most important step to protecting the longevity of your new investment. Please read carefully and follow instructions for maintenance to prevent loss of colour and shape.

Understanding the Healing Process

Cosmetic tattooing will ultimately fade over time but the key is to have this happen naturally. Some lifestyle factors may also alter the outcome of your tattoo so it is important to take note of key elements to avoid where possible.

IMPORTANT: Colour in all areas may fade up to 60% after initial treatment, and this is why the touch-up perfection visit in 4-6 weeks is crucial to your final outcome. It is at this time that we can revisit colour, shape, etc to give you your ultimate results. This will be pre-booked with you during your first session.

THE TWO WEEK RULE!

It is vital to avoid the following for up to 2 weeks post treatment:

• NO WETTING TREATED AREA! This includes excessive exercise & sweating
• No makeup to be applied directly to the treated area
• No sun, soap, sauna, chlorinated pools or salt water
• No hair removal or tinting treatments until 2 weeks after your touch-up appointment!
• If the area becomes itchy, this is normal. Don't scratch the area
• Apply healing cream (provided) minimum morning and night (also during day if skin is extremely dry)

Important Planning Considerations

We will cover the ins & outs of your aftercare in detail at your session; however, these are the key points to be prepared for. Consider these main points, especially if you have any major events or holidays planned within the 4-8 week treatment plan.

Maintenance Moving Forward

Initial Touch-Up: Following your initial treatment day, you will be required to attend a touch-up appointment 4-6 weeks later. This is to perfect colour and shape to ensure longevity of your new investment.

Annual Maintenance: Thereafter, we recommend annual touch-up appointments which you can book online at an exclusive price from 12-36 months. (**for existing clients only - all new clients with previous PMU work must book a complimentary consultation prior to booking a tattoo touch-up.)

Additional Touch-Ups: Should you require an additional touch-up appointment this will be charged at $100 if completed within the following 4-6 weeks touch-up; or $200 if up to 6 months post your initial 4-6 weeks touch-up service. This will be discussed with you during your consultation if your artist feels this is a potential/likely outcome.
