📋 Overview

The Touch-up Timeline helps plan and track tattoo touch-up schedules, ensuring clients return at optimal times for the best results.

✨ Key Features

  • Healing timeline tracker
  • Optimal touch-up window calculator
  • Client reminder system
  • Before/after photo comparison
  • Touch-up necessity assessment
  • Scheduling assistant

🎯 How to Use

  • Enter original tattoo completion date
  • Log tattoo details (size, location, colors used)
  • Calculate optimal touch-up window
  • Set reminders for client follow-up
  • Track which areas need attention
  • Schedule touch-up appointments accordingly

💡 Understanding the Results

Most tattoos should be fully healed before touch-ups (4-6 weeks minimum). Some settling and fading is normal. True touch-up needs become apparent after complete healing. Some areas naturally require more touch-up than others.

🎓 Professional Tips

  • Schedule touch-up consultations at 4-6 weeks post-tattoo
  • Photograph healed work to assess objectively
  • Explain that some touch-up is normal and included
  • Track which techniques/placements need frequent touch-ups
  • Use touch-up data to improve initial application

When is the best time to schedule a touch-up?

Most tattoos should heal fully (4-6 weeks) before evaluating touch-up needs. The timeline generator creates a personalized schedule based on placement and size.

Do different tattoo styles heal differently?

Yes! Fine line work, color saturation, and skin tone all affect healing. The tool accounts for these variables when generating your timeline.

What factors can delay healing?

Sun exposure, swimming, tight clothing, and improper aftercare can extend healing time. The timeline includes warnings about these factors for each placement area.
