Aftercare instructions

Proper Care. Optimal Healing.

Important Notice:

  • Always wash your hands before cleaning or interacting with your new tattoo for the first 15 days.
  • If you observe any abnormal swelling, redness, or irritation, please consult with your primary care physician for further care instructions.
  • Minimize contact with water/harsh soap for the first 5 days.
  • DO NOT submerge your tattoo in water (bathtub, hot tub, lake, swimming pool, etc.) for at least 15 days.

DAY 1

  • Keep your tattoo wrapped and protected by the bandage for the first 24 hours following tattooing.

  • After 24h, remove the bandage and clean your tattoo with the sterile saline wipe. Let air dry  

DAY 1 to 5

  • Clean your tattoo once daily with an antibacterial “BZK” wipe, ideally after you shower and dry yourself. Air dry

DAY 1 to 15

  • Apply the provided lotion (or preferred unscented aftercare moisturizer) 3 times daily, or as needed. Hydrating your tattoo helps prevent itchiness and larger skin flaking which can result in lifting ink from your tattoo.
