Piercing

Tattoo

What is going to happen to my modification as I get older?
  • Once a piercing is healed properly it should hold its position and look as long as it does not suffer any trauma, or the jewelry is removed.
  • Even fully healed piercings may close quickly if the jewelry is removed.
  • This may happen even if the piercing has been in place for a long period of time.
  • This varies from person to person as well as the location of the piercing.
  • You should keep in mind that the tattoo is placed within living tissue that is constantly regenerating.
  • The tattoo itself will also change over time along with the tissue.
How can I keep my tattoo looking fresh and new?
  • NA
  • You must follow the aftercare given to you by your artist.
  • Protecting the tattoo from long term exposure to the sun will reduce fading.
