AFTERCARE
When can I take my bandage off?
● Leave the second skin on for 2-3 days.
● If there is excessive plasma pooling, you may remove the second skin after 24 hours.
● DO NOT apply any moisturizer for the first 2 days.
● Avoid sunbathing, heavy exercise, tight clothing, or swimming in pools, lakes, etc.
✧ Removal ✧
Soak the second skin in lukewarm water for 1 minute, then slowly pull it down (not away) from the skin.
Gently wash your tattoo using clean hands, unscented soap and lukewarm water.
Pat dry with a clean paper towel - do not rub.
If second skin is removed after only 24 hours, follow steps 2-3 to clean your tattoo once a day for 2 days and do NOT moisturize during this time.
Keep it fresh ♡
Until your tattoo has fully healed:
● DO NOT ITCH OR PICK at your tattoo. If it becomes dry/itchy, gently apply a cold compress (ice pack wrapped in paper towels) to the area.
● Moisturize your tattoo 2-3 times a day with fragrance-free moisturizer (do NOT use Aquaphor or Vaseline).
● Avoid sunbathing, heavy exercise, tight clothing, or swimming in pools, lakes, etc.
