Antibiotics, piercings and tattoos?

Question

I've been put on antibiotics, and i was wondering if anyone knew if taking antibiotics is bad while healing from a tattoo and a nose piercing. Please let me know. thanks!

Answer 1

It shouldn't have an effect, although you may want to let your tattoo artist know about the antibiotics if you are thinking about getting one.  

Answer 2

Shouldn't make any difference hunny, let your artist and piercer know what you are taking as a courtesy, but there's no need to worry. antibiotics don't thin the blood or effect healing in any way, and if its a new hole your getting they will prevent infection a bit- not that it should get infected if you keep it clean with boiled sea-salt water and don't touch it much!!

I hope you love your holes and ink when they're're done!
