Initially, your tattoo will appear more bold than usual. This is because we have deposited pigment in the skin and often times, made them appear fuller. Over the next few days after the procedure, your tattoo may darken during the healing process. This is normal and this is not the way it will remain. Around 7-14 days, you may notice some flaking/shedding of the skin in the tattoo area. Think of this is very small “scabs” falling off the skin now that the skin underneath has healed. When the skin flakes off, many times the tattoo will appear very light or sometimes it seems that they have disappeared. THIS IS NORMAL! This is because there is still a thick layer of protective skin creating a veil over the pigment. Once you go through a skin cycle (4-6 weeks) the pigment will typically reappear but will be about 30-50% lighter than it was immediately after the procedure.

IMPORTANT!!! Please follow the instructions at the link below before your appointment.

Please follow these instructions for 14 days after the procedure to improve and prolong the results of your tattoo. If you don’t follow these instructions, it can greatly affect your tattoo results or put you at risk for infection or scarring or loss of pigmentation!
