How do I prepare for my cosmetic tattooing appointment?

One Week Before:

Avoid Blood Thinners: Refrain from taking blood thinners such as aspirin, ibuprofen, fish oil, and certain supplements (like Vitamin E) unless prescribed by your doctor.

Avoid alcohol and caffeine, as they can also thin the blood.

Limit Sun Exposure: Avoid tanning or sunburns in the area to be treated. Tanned or sunburned skin can affect the outcome and healing process.

A Few Days Before:

Stop Using Certain Skincare Products: Discontinue the use of retinol, glycolic acid, and other exfoliating skincare products on the area to be treated.

Avoid any aggressive skin treatments like chemical peels or microdermabrasion.

Avoid Waxing or Plucking: Don’t wax, pluck, or thread the area to be tattooed for at least a few days before the appointment.

The Day Before:

Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water to keep your skin hydrated and in the best condition for the procedure.

On the Day of the Appointment:

Eat a Good Meal: Have a full meal before your appointment to maintain stable blood sugar levels, which helps with comfort and recovery.

Avoid Caffeine and Alcohol: Do not consume caffeine or alcohol on the day of the procedure, as they can increase bleeding and sensitivity.

Clean Skin: Cleanse the area to be treated but avoid applying any makeup, lotions, or creams to that area.

Wear Comfortable Clothing: Choose clothing that allows easy access to the treatment area and is comfortable to wear during the procedure.

After the Appointment:

Plan for Aftercare: Follow all aftercare instructions provided by your us to ensure proper healing and the best results.

Avoid activities that may cause excessive sweating or exposure to water (like swimming) for a specified period.
