Diabetes and Tattoos

Age is meaningless! Sure, there’s some areas where the skin may be less elastic than it used to and not as desirable for tattooing anymore as age progresses - but the wrist isn’t likely to be an issue yet. One of my friend’s mother in law got her first tattoo (Non medical-related) when she was in her mid-60s. Now she has at least 3 that I know of!

As to the pain, most of mine wasn’t painful at all, except the area right close to the bend of the wrist. That got my attention. The post-tattoo healing where it feels like a sunburn/road rash for a few days is more irritating, to me, than the actual tattoo process itself.
