Health information

Aftercare, healing and any other health-related content on this site is general information. It does not replace advice from a pharmacist, GP or another qualified healthcare professional. If you are concerned about your tattoo or your health, speak to one of them directly.

Corrections and updates

Articles are updated when a correction is needed or something material changes — not on a fixed schedule. Where a page has been updated since it was first published, the date is shown on that page.

Pricing information

Any prices mentioned on this site are estimates for general budgeting. Actual cost varies by artist, studio, location and the individual project, so the only reliable figure comes from the studio doing the work.
