Derm sheild
After 8- 24 hours of the first wrap, warm the wrap under hot water and pull down from the top corner.
It is important to pull down instead of away.
​
After the bandage is off, wash with antibacterial soap, no fragrance soap.
​
Wash with warm water then use paper towels to dry the area. Do not use towels, they will have bad bacteria which can cause infection.
​
Once its completely dry, apply the second bandage, making sure there's no bubbles underneath.
​
This can stay on for 3-5 days, after it comes off apply small bits of aquaphor
Traditional Healing
Keep the fresh tattoo wrapped for about 2-3 hours
​
Take off the wrap, wash with antibacterial soap and warm water for a few minutes
​
Apply thin layer of aquaphor.
​
Repeat this for the first 3 days 2- 3 times a day
​
NOTE: Aquaphor is what I recommend but ointments like Tattoo goo or Hustle butter is good too.
Only use lotion after 5 days of healing


Special Attention
It is important during the first few days to keep it clean and away from bacteria, which mainly includes pet hair or placing a fresh tattoo on dirty surfaces.
​
Blemishes Swelling and flakiness is normal
​
If the fresh tattoo becomes super red around more area than the tattoo covers, that is a sign of possible infection.
