Miguel Bohigues tattooing under sedation at Inktrance, with vital signs monitored on screen

Spain's first licensed sedation room · Valencia

Tattoos under sedation,
without pain.

Large-scale pieces under sedation, with vital signs monitored from start to finish. A studio in Valencia for people who want the whole piece resolved in one go — and painlessly.

The technique

A painless tattoo, finally possible.

In 2025 Inktrance licensed the first sedation room in a tattoo studio in Spain. Sedation removes the perception of pain during the session. Your body stays relaxed and monitored while the tattoo advances, free of the breaks, tension and fatigue that a traditional large-scale sitting imposes. It is what makes closing a full back, a sleeve or a chest in a single appointment realistic.

01

Zero pain

Sedation supervised throughout the session — no interruptions, no fatigue caused by pain.

02

Complete sessions

Large pieces — full backs, sleeves, full chest — resolved in one long sitting, without breaking up the design.

03

Monitored vitals

An anaesthetist who practises at a hospital in Valencia and a nurse supervise the session, with heart rate and oxygen saturation tracked at all times.

The artist

Miguel Bohigues.

A specialist in large-scale realism, Miguel builds dense compositions — religious, mythological, portrait-based — designed to cover full backs and entire bodies. His work is recognised for its contrast, photographic detail and a narrative that simply does not fit into one short session.

Inktrance exists to remove that limit: to bring sessions of that scale into reach, under sedation and with professional monitoring at every appointment.

How it works

The process, step by step.

01

Consultation

You tell us the idea, the placement and the size. We review references and whether the design works.

02

Pre-session assessment

We review your health history to confirm that sedation is suitable in your case.

03

Session under sedation

The tattoo session is carried out under the supervision of an anaesthetist who practises at a hospital in Valencia and of a nurse, with continuous monitoring of all vital signs throughout the procedure, from start to finish.

04

Aftercare

We follow up the healing process over the days after the session and provide care guidelines tailored to each client, to support a proper recovery, minimise discomfort while it heals and achieve the best possible aesthetic result.

Frequently asked questions

Your questions, answered.

Does a tattoo under sedation really not hurt?

Sedation removes the perception of pain during the session. You stay relaxed and monitored while the work moves forward, without the tension of a long traditional sitting.

Is it safe to get tattooed under sedation?

Yes. Your health history is reviewed before the session and, while you are tattooed, an anaesthetist who practises at a hospital in Valencia and a nurse supervise the procedure, with your vital signs monitored continuously from start to finish.

How long does a tattoo session under sedation last?

It depends on the project, but once pain is no longer the limit, sessions can run far longer than usual — ideal for large-scale pieces such as full backs or sleeves.

How much does a tattoo under sedation cost?

The price depends on size, placement and complexity, and it includes the sedation and the monitoring during the session. Every project is quoted individually after the first consultation on WhatsApp.

Where can I get a tattoo under sedation in Spain?

At Inktrance, Calle Cuenca 18, Aldaia (46960), a few minutes from the centre of Valencia and around 20 minutes from Valencia airport. Many clients travel in for a single session.

What should I do before the appointment?

You will get precise instructions at the pre-session assessment: usually arrive rested, having eaten normally, and with someone to take you home afterwards.

Can anyone be sedated?

Most people can, but every case is assessed individually before the session is confirmed, reviewing any relevant medical history.
