Type 1 T1, just got a tattoo

Hi! I have type 1 diabetes and I just got a tattoo. I was just wondering if there are any special precautions we have to take when it comes to after care to ensure it heals properly/ doesn’t get infected?
I have several tattoos and have used Palmers Cocoa butter, swear by it xx
 
Show us your ink then, people!

This is my most recent one, on my left arm and shoulder, based on four songs by my favourite band that have meant so much to me over the last thirty years (not done on a whim!). Took eight months with fortnightly sessions to allow healing.
