Before deciding to use blue gel in a tattoo procedure, there are several important things to know. The numbing effect of this product will depend on several factors, including the amount used, the quality of the products used, and the safety of the tattoo procedure. The following article provides some important information for clients and useful information for tattoo artists. We’ve also included a chart for tattoo artists to select the right tools for a tattoo procedure.
Common side effects:
You’re probably aware of the many possible side effects if you’re considering getting a tattoo. Most people have mild inflammation and itching after the procedure. However, if your symptoms persist, you should see a doctor. Blue gel is associated with a higher risk of infection and may require antibiotics. Some of the most common infections are Mycobacterium chelonae, which causes skin and soft tissue infections.
Efficacy:
The pain level determines the efficacy of blue gel for the tattoo process. It reduces after a tattoo procedure. Blue Gel contains 4% lidocaine and 2% tetracaine and avascular constrictor that effectively reduces swelling and bleeding. While it is not used as a deadener before a tattoo, it is a valuable tool for pain-sensitive procedures. While Blue Gel does not work as a pre-procedure deadener, it is highly effective after an outlining tattoo. Additionally, it can be used after a permanent makeup procedure or electrolysis to desensitize the area for tattooing.
Safety:
When it comes to getting a tattoo, some people are worried about the safety of using a topical anesthetic. The original “Blue Gel” is used for procedures on broken skin, which is especially sensitive. If your skin breaks, the procedure will have to be postponed. This can waste your time and money. On the other hand, the blue gel will provide an anesthetic effect for two hours.
Aftercare:
Getting a tattoo is an exciting adventure that doesn’t end when you leave the salon. The healing process is not nearly as fun, though. You will have to deal with itching, scabbing, and pain while your body heals. Fortunately, there is a go-to aftercare guide for blue gel tattoos. Read on to learn how to care for your new piece of body art.
