TATTOO AFTERCARE INSTRUCTION

Tattoo aftercare instructions (with second skin bandage):

  • Keep the second skin bandage on for 3-5 days. This helps protect your tattoo from dirt and irritation, giving it a good start in the healing process.

  • After 3-5 days, remove the sticker under warm running water or in the shower. This helps easily take off the sticker, minimizing any discomfort.

  • Wash the tattoo gently with warm water and an antibacterial soap to clean off any residue. Avoid scrubbing; just use your hands to wash the area.

  • After washing, gently pat the area dry with a disposable paper towel. Avoid using cloth towels, as they can hold bacteria.

  • Once dry, apply a thin layer of tattoo aftercare cream 2-3 times a day for the next three weeks. This keeps the tattoo hydrated and promotes healing. Use only a thin layer to avoid clogging pores.

  • For three weeks avoid saunas, pools, and the ocean. These can expose the tattoo to bacteria and moisture, which could interfere with healing.

  • After the tattoo is fully healed, use sunscreen on it whenever it's exposed to sunlight. This keeps the colors vibrant and protects the details over time.
