Tattoo aftercare: first 2 weeks

What to do after the session

First 2-4 hours - remove the wrap, gently wash with warm water and unscented antibacterial soap. Pat dry with paper towel. Days 1-3: apply a thin layer of Bepanthen / panthenol every 4-6 hours. Don't soak. Don't let pets lick. Days 4-14: the tattoo will start peeling - that's normal, don't pick. Use unscented lotion. Avoid sauna, pool, sun. After 2 weeks - surface healing done. Full healing - up to 2 months. SPF 50 after healing is mandatory - otherwise colors fade.
