1. Choose the Right Product
Make sure to use a lidocaine cream specifically designed for use on the skin.
2. Patch Test
Perform a patch test on a small area of skin first to check for any allergic reactions.
3. Clean the Area
Wash the area where you plan to get the tattoo with soap and water, then gently pat it dry.
4. Apply the Cream
Apply a generous layer of lidocaine cream to the area about 30-60 minutes before your tattoo appointment. Ensure the skin is well covered.
5. Cover with Plastic Wrap
Cover the cream with a piece of plastic wrap or aluminum foil. This helps keep the cream on your skin and improves absorption.
6. Timing
Leave the wrap on for about 30-60 minutes. Follow the instructions on the packaging, as some creams may have specific recommendations for duration.
7. Remove and Clean
Carefully remove the wrap and wipe away the excess cream with a clean cloth or gauze. This helps prevent excessive lidocaine from entering your bloodstream.
8. Communicate with Your Tattoo Artist
Let your tattoo artist know that you have used lidocaine. They may have their own recommendations or preferences regarding its use.
9. Watch for Side Effects
Be alert for signs of irritation, redness, or allergic reactions. If you notice anything unusual, inform your tattoo artist immediately.
10. Follow Aftercare Instructions
Follow your tattoo artist’s aftercare instructions to ensure proper healing.
Important Notes
Consult a Professional: Always consult your tattoo artist or a healthcare professional before using lidocaine, especially if you have underlying health conditions or are taking other medications.
Avoid Open Wounds: Do not apply lidocaine to broken skin or open wounds.
Dosage: Do not use more than the recommended amount to avoid toxicity. Using lidocaine correctly can make your tattoo experience more comfortable. Good luck with your session!

Naast het verminderen van de pijn kalmeerde de crème de huid ook ongelooflijk. Meestal heb ik last van roodheid, maar deze keer was alles ontspannen.

Ik ben opgewonden! Deze crème verlichtte niet alleen de pijn, maar voedde ook mijn huid. Geen droogheid of gevoel van spanning na de tatoeage.

Absoluut pijnloze sessie! Maar wat ik vooral leuk vond, is dat mijn huid na de tatoeage veel sneller herstelde.

De crème is niet alleen betaalbaar, maar ook van de hoogste kwaliteit. Aan de hologramsticker was meteen te zien dat het om een origineel product ging. Bovendien was de levering gratis en extreem snel.
