Tattoo aftercare instructions

Time-tested recommendations.

  • After approximately 4-8 hours, remove the bandage gently and wash it with warm water and mild soap. DO NOT REBANDAGE.
  • Apply a thin layer of BEPHANTEN PLUS or any other Tattoo aftercare cream. You need to apply cream 3-5 times a day during the first week after receiving the tattoo or until the skin returns to it’s pre-tattoo condition.
  • Stay out of sunlight and tanning booths until the tattoo is healed, it’s a process that usually lasts between 10-21 days.
  • Do not soak tattoo in tub, sauna, jacuzzi, or go swimming while the tattoo is healing. Showers are fine.
  • DO NOT RUB or PICK the treated area while it’s healing. Loss of color and or infection could occur
  • Extreme sun and exposure over the years can and will fade your tattoo. This can be minimized by using sunscreen, at least SPF 50
  • Do not listen to your friends about healing process of tattoos! 🙂
