Aftercare

  • Keep the second skin on for 4 days. Remove it immediately if it causes irritation to the skin

  • When removing the second skin, do so under running water. Be gentle, stretching it to detach rather than ripping it off aggressively

  • Wash the area with water to eliminate any ink, blood, plasma, or adhesive. Pat dry with a paper towel; avoid using a bath towel

  • Apply a thin layer of aftercare ointment to the tattoo using clean fingers

  • Over the next two weeks, ensure daily washing with water, patting dry with a paper towel, and moisturising the area

Things to Avoid:

  • Picking, peeling, scratching the tattoo

  • Sweating excessively

  • Immersion in water - no swimming, hot tubs, lakes, etc. Plan vacations accordingly.

  • Sun exposure

    If a touch-up is necessary, it can be performed after 6 weeks from the initial appointment. To schedule a touch-up, please email me a photo of your healed tattoo at inkedbyvs@gmail.com
