Is any numbing gel any good for a tattoo?

I’m really bad with sharp scratchy pain but I really want to get this tattoo and I’ve wanted it sinse I turned 18 last year as it Meens alot to me. Have any of you tryed it or know of anyone that has? Thanks!

Answer #1

DO NOT use Vaseline on it, or other oils or grease on your tattoo. Instead, at this stage of healing, make sure you moisturize your tattoo. Use a non-perfumed, un-scented and light moisturizer like Lubriderm. If the itching is too great and you must scratch, give it a nice smack, but don’t scratch it. Otherwise it is down to self control and willpower!

Answer #2

Thanks! I’ve had a good few options for after care for it :) I was kind of meaning is there any good numbing gels to apply the area that’s getting the tattoo so that the potential pain is less?

Answer #3

Not only will a numbing gel not help the pain, it could cause infection.

Answer #4

Thankyou! Will stay clear of them in that case!
