Days 3-14 : Clean with saline, sterile water or antibacterial soap that we will provide. Use dabbing motions with cotton or gauze, once a day or as needed. Do this daily.
(If antibacterial soap is used, please clean the area well making sure that there are no soap residue by dabbing with a damp cotton or gauze using sterile water)
Next apply a small dose of any ointment we provide or of ointment of your choice, (Vitamin A & D, Coconut oil , Aquaphor, etc) spread it over the treated area.
******** Only use ointment when you feel your skin is getting tight, if skin feels good, DO NOT USE ointment ********
Use very little ointment, to allow your skin to breathe. Over saturating the area will delay the healing process. The exact amount would be that which is barely noticeable on the skin. Never apply the ointment to a wet tattoo!!
Note: If you have oily skin. SKIP the ointment!!!
Here are some extra tips for good healing:
Water, Swimming (beach, pool, lake ...) and jacuzzis.14 days
During this process do not use any facial cleansing product that contains acids (glycolic, lactic or AHA) and no facial scrub.
Use clean towels on your pillow cases (as you can stain your pillows)
Don't touch the scabs on your skin, let them fall off on their own. Scratching or rubbing the treated area can cause scarring or pigment loss.
Avoid facials, Botox, chemical or microdermabrasion treatments during the first month.
Avoid exercise that causes excessive sweating - 7 days.
Showers with a lot of steam and very hot water. 7 days
Sleeping on your stomach. 7 days
Non-specific cosmetics, including sunscreen. 14 days
Avoid Direct sun or tanning booths - 14 days
But above all: don't rub the treated area!
Important information about the shower:
Limit your daily shower to 5 minutes and try not to create too much steam. While you lather your body, try not to get your face wet. I recommend washing your hair at the end of the shower and, when you rinse it, avoid wetting the treated area as much as possible.
