What is the downtime of Cheek Tint Tattoo ?

Immediately after the tattoo the color is intense and bright due to the blood flow being brought back to the surface. Within 48 hours the colour will reduce and start to go slightly darker. 

Days 3-5 will be spent going through some dry peeling stages.

Days 5-7 the skin is repairing itself and you will see a lighter version of the tattoo under the skin that has shed. This color will still take about another 2 weeks to fully pop and blossom. After the tattoo has fully healed you can book for the touch-up if required.
