The healing period for all tattoos varies from a week to two weeks, and also varies from person to person. Aftercare is very important.

Leave the film dressing on over night and remove the next day. (If the dressing splits or comes lose, don’t attempt to re-dress the tattoo, just remove the dressing early)

Wash your tattoo with lukewarm soapy water and pat dry with a clean towel twice daily.

Apply a thin smear of BEPANTHEN OINTMENT to your tattoo a few times a day with clean hands.
After 3-5 days the tattoo will scab. Allow the scab to flake off naturally. It will itch!

Do not Pick or scratch at your new tattoo during the healing process.
Do not Re-dress your tattoo
Do not Expose new tattoo to the sun (or sun bed)
Do not Expose new tattoo to dust/chemicals etc
Do not Go swimming or bath tattoo for long periods during the healing process
