01Saniderm

Keep the Saniderm on for 1–4 days after your tattoo.

Some ink or fluid underneath the bandage is normal.

Remove it earlier if it leaks, gets wet underneath, or becomes uncomfortable.

02Remove & Clean

Wash your hands before removing the Saniderm.

Gently remove it and wash your tattoo with lukewarm water and mild, fragrance-free soap.

Pat dry gently with a clean paper towel. Do not rub.

03Moisturize

Once dry, apply a very thin layer of Aquaphor, A&D ointment, or a fragrance-free moisturizer.

Keep the tattoo lightly moisturized — do not apply a thick layer.

04Let It Heal

Mild itching, peeling, and light scabbing can be normal during healing.

Do not scratch, pick, or peel your tattoo.

Let the skin heal naturally.

05Sun & Water

Avoid direct sunlight and do not soak your tattoo in pools, hot tubs, baths, oceans, or lakes until fully healed.

Once healed, use sunscreen to help protect your tattoo from fading.

06Healing Time

Most tattoos take approximately 2–3 weeks to heal on the surface.

Healing time may vary depending on the tattoo and your skin.

07Questions or Concerns

If you notice unusual or worsening redness, swelling, pain, discharge, or other signs of infection, contact your artist and seek medical care when appropriate.

If you're unsure about how your tattoo is healing, feel free to send your artist a clear photo.
