Tattoo Aftercare

LEAVE YOUR CLING FILM ON FOR AT LEAST 6 HOURS. WHEN REMOVING YOUR CLING FILM WASH THE AREA WITH ANTIBACTERIAL SOAP (NON FRAGRANCED IS BEST).

​

GENTLY PAT DRY WITH A PAPER TOWEL OR FRESHLY CLEANED TOWEL THEN LET AIR DRY FOR 15 MINUTES.

​

APPLY A VERY THIN LAYER OF THE AFTERCARE CREAM THAT YOU HAVE BEEN RECOMMENDED. YOU WILL NEED TO RE APPLY THE CREAM 3 TIMES DAILY.

​

DO NOT PICK SCABS! DOING SO WILL REMOVE THE PIGMENT FROM THE TATTOO AND LEAVE THE AREA SCARRED.

​

DO NOT WEAR CLOTHING THAT IS TOO TIGHT ON THE AREA, THIS CAN IRRITATE THE TATTOO.

​

DO NOT SWIM (CHLORINE, FRESH OR SALT) OR GO IN A HOTTUB/BATH FOR AT LEAST 2 WEEKS.

​

ITS BEST TO AVOID SOAKING THE TATTOO ALL TOGETHER, SO TRY AND TAKE SHOWERS INSTEAD OF BATHS.

​

AVOID ALL DIRECT EXPOSURE TO THE SUN, PARTICULARLY DURING THE HEALING PERIOD.

​

THE LONGER YOU KEEP THE TATTOO OUT OF THE SUN, THE LONGER IT WILL LAST. ALWAYS YUSE SPF30 SUN SCREAN ON YOUR TATTOO ONCE HEALED IF YOU ARE GOING TO BE IN DIRECT CONTACT WITH THE SUN.

​

HOW YOU LOOK AFTER YOUR NEW TATTOO WILL AFPECT THE WAY IT HEALS AND LOOKS LIKE IN THE FUTURE.
