Aftercare

If using saniderm:

• Leave saniderm on for up to 3 days.

• To remove the saniderm, run it under hot water to help melt the adhesive.

• Apply a thin layer of unscented lotion onto your tattoo at least twice a day or as needed until fully healed.

• If the saniderm starts to leak prematurely, take it off as bacteria can get inside of it. Wash your tattoo with antibacterial soap 2-3 times a day or as needed until until fully healed.

• Tattoos tend to scab and peel during the healing process. Avoid picking, scratching, and scrubbing your tattoo while it heals.

• Avoid direct sunlight as well as soaking your tattoo in water (pools, hot tubs, baths, beaches, etc.) for at least 2-3 weeks until your tattoo is fully healed.
  

If using a normal bandage:

• Leave bandage on overnight to allow your tattoo to bleed out.

• In the morning, take off the bandage and wash your tattoo with antibacterial soap.

• Pat dry with a clean towel and use unscented lotion to moisturize your tattoo.

• Wash and moisturize twice a day or as needed until your tattoo is fully healed.
