Tattoo Aftercare Instructions
Tattoo Aftercare Instructions
First Day
1. Immediately After Getting Tattooed:
• Your artist will cover your tattoo with a protective film called Saniderm.
• Leave the Saniderm on for 24 hours. This bandage will protect your tattoo from bacteria and reduce the risk of infection.
After 24 Hours
2. Removing the Saniderm:
• Wash your hands thoroughly before touching the tattoo.
• Carefully remove the Saniderm. It may be easier to do this in the shower with warm water.
• Wash your tattoo with warm water and a mild, fragrance-free soap. Use only your hands to wash; avoid using cloths or sponges.
3. Drying:
• Gently pat the tattooed area dry with a clean towel or paper towel. Do not rub, just pat it dry.
Applying New Saniderm
4. Applying New Saniderm:
• If recommended by your artist, apply a new sheet of Saniderm.
• Keep this second layer of Saniderm on for 3-5 days. Make sure the area is completely dry before applying it.
After Removing the Final Saniderm
5. Ongoing Care:
• Wash your tattoo gently once or twice a day with mild, fragrance-free soap and water.
• After washing, gently pat the area dry with a clean towel.
• Apply a thin layer of a recommended tattoo aftercare ointment or moisturizer to keep the tattoo hydrated.
• Avoid submerging the tattoo in water (like swimming pools, hot tubs, or baths) for at least two weeks.
• Avoid direct sunlight and tanning beds until your tattoo is fully healed.
• Do not pick or scratch the tattoo as it heals, even if it becomes itchy.
General Tips
• Hydration: Drink plenty of water to keep your skin hydrated.
• Clothing: Wear loose-fitting clothes to avoid irritation on the tattooed area.
