Preparing
How do I prepare for my appointment?
Sleep well, eat a proper meal, drink water, skip alcohol the day before and on the day, avoid blood thinners such as aspirin unless a doctor says otherwise, wear loose clothes that leave the skin free, and bring ID. Sign the consent form in Tatspire beforehand if your studio uses it.
