TATTOO AFTERCARE

Tattoo aftercare is important to keeping your tattoo looking good but also taking care of your skin. A tattoo is an open wound so follow our aftercare instructions carefully to prevent infection and unnecessary scarring. Find your tattoo healing instructions below. 

1

Leave first bandages on for 24 hours. If your tattoo exudes plasma, it is common with heavy saturation and color work.

2

The tattoo must be washed with antibacterial soap. (glycerin free, dye free, and fragrance free)

3

Pat dry with paper towel and apply a thin layer of ointment to the tattoo.

4

Apple a new medical bandage. (The second application can be worn for up to 4 days, but no longer than 5 days.)

Note: Wipe down the surrounding area of the tattoo with mineral oil to remove the adhesive residue from the medical patch!!
