Applying TKTX Original Numbing Cream correctly is essential to ensure maximum effectiveness during tattoos or other cosmetic procedures. Here is a detailed step-by-step guide to help you get the best results:

Step 1: Prepare Clean, Dry, and Hairless Skin

Before applying TKTX Original, make sure the skin is clean, dry, and free of hair. Shave the area where the cream will be applied using a razor or trimmer. Wash the area thoroughly with water and a mild soap to remove any dirt, oils, or bacteria. This prevents infections and ensures the cream penetrates properly. Dry the skin completely with a clean towel, ensuring no lotions or other products are left on the skin.

Step 2: Apply a Generous Layer of Cream

Take a generous amount of TKTX Original and evenly spread it over the skin. Ensure the layer is thick enough to allow the active ingredients to be absorbed effectively. Avoid rubbing it in, as this could diminish its effect.
A thicker application will enhance the numbing effect and extend its duration. Below is a general guide for the amount needed based on tattoo size:

  • 5 cm x 5 cm (Small tattoo) = 1 tube
  • 10 cm x 10 cm (Medium tattoo) = 1–3 tubes
  • 15 cm x 15 cm (Large tattoo) = 3–5 tubes
  • 20 cm x 20 cm (XL tattoo) = 5–10 tubes
  • 30 cm x 30 cm (XXL tattoo) = 10+ tubes

Step 3: Cover with Plastic Wrap

After applying the cream, cover the area with plastic wrap. This step is crucial as it creates warmth and moisture, enhancing the absorption of the active ingredients. Ensure the wrap is tight enough to stay in place but not so tight that it restricts circulation. This step is especially important for areas like the ribs or ankles where skin sensitivity can be higher.

 

 

Step 4: Let the Cream Sit

Leave the TKTX Original cream on for 40–60 minutes. This gives the numbing agents enough time to penetrate the skin and desensitize the nerves. For highly sensitive areas, such as ribs or ankles, a longer application time may be beneficial. Do not remove the wrap earlier, as this can reduce the effectiveness of the numbing process.

Step 5: Remove the Plastic Wrap

Carefully remove the plastic wrap after the cream has had sufficient time to work. At this point, the treated area should begin to feel numb. Gently wipe off any excess cream with water and a soft tissue or cloth. Ensure the area is clean and dry before the tattoo artist or specialist begins their work.

Step 6: Allow the Skin to Breathe for 10 Minutes

Before starting the procedure, let the skin breathe for 10 minutes without any product or wrap. This helps ensure the numbing effect stabilizes.

Step 7: Proceed with the Procedure

The treated area will now feel numb, making the tattoo or procedure significantly more comfortable. Depending on the type of TKTX Original cream used, the numbing effect can last 2 to 4 hours, giving enough time for most procedures. Always discuss with your tattoo artist or specialist if the process might exceed the numbing duration, so you can plan accordingly.

Extra Tips for Using TKTX Original Cream

  • Patch Test First: If you have sensitive skin, test the cream on a small area well in advance to rule out allergic reactions.
  • Use the Right Amount: Too little cream may reduce effectiveness, while excessive use could lead to a stronger or prolonged numbing effect than needed.
  • Be Mindful of Duration: The numbing effect generally lasts 2–4 hours. For longer procedures, you may need to reapply the cream halfway, if safely possible.
  • Avoid Contact with Eyes or Mucous Membranes: TKTX Original is for external use only. If it gets in your eyes, rinse thoroughly with water.
