Aftercare Instructions

If you have any questions or concerns about the healing of your tattoo, please don’t hesitate to consult us or your physician.

1) Leave the bandage on until the morning after you are tattooed.

2) Lightly Scrub your tattoo using a clean cloth and a mild soap like Dove, Ivory or Spectro Gel.

*Be sure to remove all blood, ink and ointment leftover from the tattoo process.*

3) Pat your tattoo dry using a clean towel or lint free paper towel.

4) For the first 3 to 4 days keep your tattoo clean and dry; this means short showers, no soaking.

5) Gently wash your tattoo daily using your hand and a mild soap, pat dry as soon as you’re finished.

6) After 3 to 4 days you can begin to apply a small amount of water based scent free lotion, preferably Lubraderm.

7) Making sure your hands are clean apply once or twice daily until your tattoo is healed.

*Do not rub or pick your scabs, keep your tattoo out of the sun, tanning beds and soaking water.*

8) Remember, your body will heal itself. Generally, the less you do to a new tattoo the better it will heal.
