Care for your new tattoo

With Dermic Patch:

  • The patch must remain correctly attached on the first 24HRS. It’s important not to remove it so that accumulated fluid doesn’t seep out from the edges, which would prevent bacteria from entering.
  • It’s normal for plasma and excess ink to accumulate; do not touch it, as it will dry out or be absorbed. Don’t worry, it won’t stain your tattoo if you have color.
  • After the first 24 hours have passed, carefully remove, wash with neutral soap and water. Once it’s completely dry, place the second patch, remove the white paper layer, stick it onto the tattoo, and finally remove the outer transparent layer.
  • Take short immersion baths and avoid letting the water fall directly on the tattoo while showering.
  • The patch should remain in place for 4-6 days, and when removing it, do it gently and with great care.
  • Wash well with neutral soap and begin the moisturizing stage. Hydrate two to three times daily, or when you feel your skin is dry or tight. Use a small amount of cream and spread it evenly until you achieve a thin and uniform layer.

With Film:

  • Remove the film after 2-3 hours of getting the tattoo.
  • Wash your hands thoroughly before cleaning. Create lather with a glycerin-based neutral soap and wash gently, removing all excess ink and plasma to prevent the formation of a thick scab during healing. Do not rub the soap directly on the skin.
  • Pat dry with disposable tissue paper, never a towel.
  • You can cover the tattoo with film again at night to sleep comfortably and avoid staining the sheets. When you wake up, repeat the washing process.
  • Repeat the washing process 2-3 times a day until the tattoo has fully peeled.
  • When the skin starts to dry and form a scab, begin to moisturize it.
