AFTER CARE GUIDE
Your body will heal your tattoo naturally there is nothing you can do to speed up this process.
This does not mean you don’t have to be careful with your new tattoo. Fresh tattoos are classed as open wounds and need to be treated as such; therefore need to be kept clean and washed frequently (twice a day) throughout the first few days of the
healing process.
It is recommended to wash your tattoo once home from your appointment using warm water and plain soap (make sure your hands are also clean) then dried using either a clean towel, paper towel or air dried. Then
allow your tattoo to dry out with nothing on it.
Do not be alarmed if what appears to be excess ink comes out of your tattoo during day one or two of healing, this is normal and part of the healing process and will not effect your tattoo, just clean and pat dry.
After 3-5 days your body will have closed over your tattoo and should now be dry to the touch, it is now safe to apply small amounts of plain moisturiser, or healing balms whatever you prefer.
By day 5-7 your tattoo should be flaking and by day 7-12 flaking will have finished.
Your tattoo should now appear shiny and your skin is now closed over.
Your tattoo should be completely healed by day 14-16.
Until tattoo is completely healed avoid
• Swimming including baths
• Excess sweating
• Excess sunlight
• Scented creams/ lotions
• Do not pick at tattoo
• Do not apply excess amounts of aftercare balms or moisturiser
If tattoo is extremely painful, oozing, hot or extremely red please visit a doctor immediately.
