Failure to follow these instructions may result in pigment color loss! After-care is extremely important for producing a beautiful and long-lasting result. Remember, everybody heals differently and at their own natural rate, so take it easy for a few days, drink lots of water, and let your body heal. For most people, the skin should be completely healed within 45-60 days and the color will completely settle within 60-90 days. Results will vary based on your skin, health, and many other factors. Always moisturize, and use sun block thereafter to ensure your tattoo color lasts as long as possible. Sincerely, FULL Micropigmentation Team Date: October 9, 2024 |
