What should I know about aftercare for my tattoo while in Khao Lak?

Taking care of your new tattoo is crucial, especially in a tropical climate like Khao Lak. Keep it clean and moisturized to promote healing and prevent infections. • Avoid sun exposure on your tattoo during the healing process. If you're hitting the beach, consider covering it up or using a high SPF sunscreen once it’s healed. • Stay away from swimming pools and the ocean for at least two weeks, as saltwater and chlorine can irritate your tattoo and hinder healing. • Many tattoo shops here provide aftercare instructions, so don't hesitate to ask your artist for specific recommendations tailored to the local environment.
