Overview
Tattoo Med, styled TattooMed, is a German company that makes skincare and body products for tattoo aftercare. Based in Stuttgart, it develops creams, protective films, oils and sun sprays intended for freshly tattooed, healing and long-healed skin, and describes its work as tattoo care built to a medical standard [1]. According to the company, its products are developed jointly by tattoo artists and pharmacists, combining what it calls pharmaceutical roots with a genuine interest in tattooing [2].
The business trades as TattooMed GmbH and is registered at an address on Ulmer Strasse in Stuttgart [3]. Its founding year is given inconsistently across the company's own pages: the homepage dates the brand to 2013, while the About page states it was established in 2012 [1][2]. The company remains active, selling directly to consumers, supplying tattoo studios, and working with international distribution partners.
Origin & founders
Tattoo Med does not name its founders publicly. Rather than crediting named individuals, the company attributes its products to tattoo artists and pharmacists, and traces its expertise to a background in pharmaceutical work paired with tattoo culture [2]. Company records list Janusz Hermann as managing director of TattooMed GmbH [3].
History & milestones
The company places its beginnings in the early 2010s, though the year it cites shifts between 2012 and 2013 depending on the page [1][2]. In 2014 it converted an American stepvan into a mobile tattoo studio known as the TattooMed Truck, which travelled to conventions, events and studios across Germany [2].
Philosophy & positioning
Tattoo Med presents itself as modern tattoo care with a medical claim, and frames its products around what it describes as "real skin — freshly tattooed, during healing, and throughout life" [2]. It organises its range around the stages of a tattoo's life, from wound protection in the studio through at-home regeneration to daily care and long-term colour and UV protection. The company also markets care for piercings, laser treatment and permanent make-up. Its consumer slogan is "We Love Your Colors" [1].
Products & innovation
The product line includes an After Tattoo Care Cream, a transparent protective patch or film for wound protection, a Tattoo Butter, and a Sun Protection Spray with SPF 50, alongside cleansing gels and daily-care creams and oils [1]. The company states that its formulations are developed on a medical basis and describes them as dermatologically confirmed [1].
Sustainability & ethics
The company says all Tattoo Med products are vegan, developed and manufactured without animal testing, and produced in Germany to high quality standards [2]. It also states a commitment to sustainability, though no third-party certifications are documented.
Current status
Tattoo Med is an active brand. It operates a direct-to-consumer online shop, a separate business channel for tattoo studios, and a network of international distribution partners, and continues to publish tattoo-care content for customers.
