First 24 hours:

• Once you’re home, have a shower and thoroughly wet the dressing.

• Lather your hands with soap and rub over the top of the dressing to clean the tattoo.

• Pat dry with a clean towel or paper towel. 

• Next 7 days:

• Leave the dressing on for 7 days from application. Don’t take it off earlier. 

• Wash over the top of the dressing once a day with hot soapy water. 

• If you notice a rash or reaction around the dressing, remove it straight away and contact me. Itchiness by day 3 or 4 is normal in the healing and not necessarily a sign of a reaction. 

• Dressing may lift in corners, feel free to trim it back if the tattoo is not exposed. 

After 7 days:

• Thoroughly wet the dressing and remove it in the shower under running water. 

• Lightly moisturise 2-3 times  day with clean hands until no longer dry or flaky.

• Wash everyday with hot soapy water until no longer dry or flaky.
