For optimum results, after the first 5-7 days, we have provided you with these general guidelines. After this time, when you are exposed to the sun wear a hat and apply a good sunscreen to your face and tattooed area. when swimming you can cover the tattooed area in vaseline.
If you are having any facial treatments such as chemical peels or laser let your therapist know of your tattooed area, this includes products used at home that cause rapid exfoliation such as Retinol, Retin-A, Renova, Alpha Hydroxy or Glycolic Acid. These guidelines are to prevent premature fading and colour change give you longer lasting results.
Touch ups of your tattoo can be booked when necessary, as everyone holds the pigment differently. Your results will generally last 18-24 months.
