There are three types of anesthesia used to reduce the pain associated with tattoos:

  1. Topical anesthesia – This is the most commonly used form of anesthesia for tattoos. It is applied directly to the skin as a cream, gel, or spray and can help reduce pain and discomfort during the tattooing process.

  2. Local anesthesia – Injected directly into the area where the tattoo will be done, it can help numb the skin and reduce pain. It is more effective than topical anesthesia but may have side effects and requires supervision by a healthcare professional.

  3. General anesthesia – Administered intravenously and numbs the entire body. It is only used in very specific situations and is usually administered in a hospital or clinical setting.

After outlining the types of anesthetics available, you need to determine which applies to your case. Generally, in 99% of cases, topical anesthesia in cream form is used.
