Pain is an inseparable part of getting a tattoo. The art of embedding designs into human skin through repeated needle punctures that deposit pigments beneath the epidermis causes continuous stimulation of the pain receptors (nociceptors) located in the superficial dermis. As a result, this process triggers painful sensations whose intensity each person may tolerate differently.
The intensity of pain is influenced by a wide variety of factors: biological (age, sex, illness, fatigue, sleep issues…), psychological (mood, expectations, coping strategies, attention…), and social (beliefs, environment, culture…). These factors interact and shape how someone perceives and experiences pain. For instance, a person suffering from depression might be more sensitive to pain and have a harder time coping with it, leading to a higher perceived intensity.
The problem with tattoo-related pain is that many people try to minimize it through unsafe and unproven means, often following advice from sources with questionable scientific backing. Some turn to unregulated products or "alternative therapies", non-approved drugs, psychiatric medications obtained from friends or family, or even narcotics or psychoactive substances—anything to deliberately alter their mental state and reduce pain perception. These attempts often fail to provide a truly effective and safe solution and carry underestimated health risks.
Tattoo anesthesia was born as a professional response to this growing demand, aiming to provide a safe and effective solution. Not only does it eliminate pain, turning the experience into something more enjoyable, but the benefits go much further: it also helps reduce burning, swelling, and oozing at the end of the session and improves skin recovery, preventing complications. Additionally, it optimizes time by reducing the need for multiple sessions and enhances the tattoo’s quality, as the artist can work more quickly, precisely, and efficiently—benefiting both the artist and the client.
It is the perfect alternative for those who have suffered in previous experiences, have unfinished tattoos, or want to tackle highly sensitive areas such as the neck, chest, ribs, or abdomen. It is also ideal for people with limited time who want to complete a large project as quickly as possible.
