To ensure your appointment at INTO Tattoo Studio in 1080 Vienna Josefstadt runs smoothly, please bring a valid photo ID – we are legally not allowed to tattoo without it.

The duration of your tattoo appointment at INTO Tattoo Studio in Vienna depends on the size, level of detail, and placement. A small fineline tattoo can take around 30 to 60 minutes, while more complex custom tattoo designs may require several hours or multiple sessions. We always take the time needed to ensure a precise and high-quality result.

Pain is very individual, but most clients describe the sensation as a light scratching or stinging. Fineline tattoos are generally less intense, as they are less demanding on the skin.

Proper tattoo aftercare is essential for the best results. Leave the protective wrap on for as long as your tattoo artist recommends. Then gently clean your tattoo with lukewarm water and a mild, fragrance-free soap. Pat it dry with a clean towel and apply a thin layer of tattoo aftercare cream. At INTO Tattoo Studio in Vienna, we guide you through every step of the healing process to ensure your tattoo heals cleanly and evenly.

No need to worry – this is completely normal. Itching and light peeling are signs that your skin is healing. Important: do not scratch or pick at the skin, as this can damage the tattoo and affect the color. Instead, gently tap the area or apply a very thin layer of your tattoo aftercare ointment. At our tattoo studio in Vienna, we support you throughout the entire healing process.

Tattoo healing time varies depending on your skin type, placement, and the size of the tattoo. In most cases, the outer layer of skin heals within 2–3 weeks, while full skin regeneration can take 4–6 weeks.
Important: during the first weeks, proper aftercare and protection from sun exposure, saunas, and swimming are essential to ensure clean lines and long-lasting color. If you have any questions, feel free to contact INTO Tattoo Studio in Vienna at any time.
