The Process: Getting Your Body Art Done Right
At Sanatorium Tattoo, we make sure every client enjoys a seamless experience from consultation to aftercare.

Here’s how it works:

Step 1: Consultation
Before getting inked, we discuss your ideas, placement, and style preferences. Our artists provide expert guidance to ensure the best possible design.

Step 2: Custom Design Creation
Based on your consultation, we create a custom piece that matches your vision. You’ll have the opportunity to review and make adjustments before the tattooing process begins.

Step 3: The Tattoo Session
Depending on the size and complexity of the design, your tattoo may take one session or multiple sittings. Our artists ensure a comfortable and professional experience.

Step 4: Aftercare & Healing
Proper aftercare is essential for maintaining the quality of your tattoo. We provide detailed instructions on how to care for your fresh ink and ensure it heals beautifully.
