For an optimal cosmetic tattoo experience, it's vital to have your skin and body well-prepared. Adhere to the following advice to guarantee the best outcome for your cosmetic tattooing. • It's advisable to consume a light meal before your session to maintain stable blood sugar levels. • Refrain from wearing makeup, especially in the area designated for tattooing. • Physical exercise on the day of your treatment is discouraged as it can enlarge the pores due to elevated body heat. • Limit sun exposure in the weeks leading up to your session; excessive sun can heighten skin sensitivity. • Avoid caffeine-containing beverages on the day of your session. • Caffeine can elevate the risk of bleeding during the treatment, which can hinder pigment retention. • Unless prescribed by a physician, refrain from taking Aspirin, Niacin, Vitamin E, Ibuprofen, or Omega-3 for 48-72 hours ahead of your treatment. Such substances can thin the blood. • Steer clear of alcohol a day before the treatment, as it too acts as a blood thinner. • Make sure that you've had a gap of at least three weeks since any Botox treatments before undergoing PMU. If you're contemplating Botox, prioritise your tattoo procedure. • Acne medications like Accutane or Retin-A affect skin conditions. If you've consumed them in the past year, delay your tattooing session by at least a year. Avoid Retinol and Vitamin A a month ahead of your session. • Ensure a gap of at least three days since any Waxing or Tinting before the treatment. • Consider taking an antihistamine to mitigate watery eyes (for eyeliner and lip procedures) and potential swelling. • Remove eyelash extensions at least three days before an eyeliner procedure. • Eyelash growth enhancers can make the skin more sensitive and prone to bleeding. It's wise to halt their use 3-6 months before your session. • For post-procedure safety, remove contact lenses and wait for at least two hours before reinserting them. Keep a pair of spectacles handy or organise alternative transport. • For those with a history of cold sores, there's a risk of a flare-up post lip treatment. Over-the-counter or prescribed anti-herpes medication can help when taken 5-7 days ahead of the procedure. Doubling up on Lysine doses two weeks before can also be beneficial.
