Your artist provides instructions matched to your tattoo and covering. Follow those instructions over general online advice.
Your responsibility
Keep the tattoo clean, use recommended products sparingly, avoid picking and protect healing skin from soaking, friction and sun.
Questions and concerns
Send clear photos and a description if healing worries you. Seek medical help for fever, severe swelling, spreading redness or urgent symptoms.
Result and touch-ups
Healing varies by skin, placement and care. Any touch-up assessment happens only after full healing and is discussed individually.
Questions can be sent to info@motorink.nl or discussed with us at Jonge Roelensteeg 4A, 1012 PL Amsterdam.
First two weeks
Keep the covering on as instructed, wash with clean hands and lukewarm water, pat dry and apply a thin layer of the recommended product. Avoid swimming, sauna, gym, sunbeds and direct sun until the skin is closed.
No medical advice
Our guidance is aftercare advice, not medical advice. Contact a doctor or the GGD for medical questions, signs of infection or an allergic reaction.
Long-term care
Sunscreen keeps a healed tattoo sharp. Skin changes, weight change and ageing can alter a tattoo over time; this is normal and not a defect.
