The First 3 Day's.

Leave the second skin on for 3 days.

Afterwards take it off under the shower with some water by carefully pulling the sides of the film horizontally. 

​

Note:

Do this carrefully and gentle.

Healing Process

After the second skin is off wash the tattoo everyday once for about 14 days and only with neutral soap.

​

Also start creaming it for about 14 days, 3 - 5 times a day with a very small amount of tattoo cream.

​

Important:

​

No sun exposure on the tattoo for at least 2-3 weeks!

​

The tattoo is not allowed to stay under water (soak) meaning, no baths, swimming, sauna, etc...

Also avoid long showers with water consistently running over the tattoo.

​

Shower is fine but once it's washed with neutral soap and is clean keep it out of the running water.

Also this applies for about 2-3 weeks.

​

Note:

If the tattoo is a bit dry, cream it.

When the tattoo starts peeling and itching don’t scratch.

You could remove ink and therefore might need a retouch.

Special Attention

When a certain part of the tattoo is not healing as good as the other parts, due to an allergic reaction, infection or too much trauma to the skin.

 

Go to the pharmacy and ask for a stronger healing cream that is effective for a tattoo.

 

Use it a couple of days and as soon it’s a lot better you can switch back to the normal tattoo cream. 

 

This will speed up the healing process, the faster you react the better your tattoo will heal thus also the better the result.
