Tattoos and Sport: Essential Care

Tattoos are popular among athletes, but require precautions to avoid problems.

Before the tattoo

  • Choose the right time: Avoid getting tattooed during competitive season or intense training.
  • Consult a professional: Choose an authorized studio with good hygienic practices.
  • Avoid areas of friction: Areas exposed to sports equipment may take longer to heal.

During Recovery

  • Rest: Avoid intense sports for 48-72 hours.
  • Take care of hygiene: Wash gently and apply the recommended cream.
  • Avoid sweating: Reduce activities that cause excessive sweating.
  • Loose-fitting clothing: Wear breathable, non-irritating clothing.

Avoid

  • Sun exposure: Protect the tattoo with sunscreen once it has healed.
  • Swimming pools: Do not swim during the first weeks.
  • Scraping scabs: Do not remove scabs to avoid scarring.
