Caring After Your Tattoo

We’ve done our part, here’s where you come in

Step 1: Removing The Film

Your tattoo is covered with Dermalize, a waterproof dressing for fast healing.

After 5 days, gently remove it under warm running water, ensuring no skin damage.

Step 2: Cleaning Your Tattoo

Always wash your hands before touching the tattoo.

Wash your tattoo with antibacterial soap and gently pat it dry with a paper towel or let it air dry.

Step 3: Applying Aftercare

For the first 2 weeks, apply a small amount of Tattoo aftercare cream twice a day.

Wash your hands, dot a small amount over the tattoo, and rub it in. A thin layer is enough.

Step 4: Taking Care

Avoid picking or scratching your tattoo; it will be uncomfortable and itchy.

Stay out of direct sunlight during the healing process. Use sunscreen after it heals for at least 3 months.

Remember

Avoid swimming, direct sunlight, tight clothing, scratching, others' dirty hands, and long showers for 2 weeks.

Treat your tattoo like a wound—keep it clean and bacteria-free.
