Key points about using DERMSHIELD for tattoo aftercare:

• -Moist healing environment:

  dermshield creates a moist environment that promotes optimal healing by allowing the body's plasma to accumulate beneath the bandage.

• -Removal in the shower:

  after 24 hours remove the bandage by gently peeling it off in a warm shower, starting from a corner.

• -reapply:

  after removing the first bandage in the shower, gently dry your tattoo with a paper towel, and apply the second piece of dermshield that your artist has provided you.

•  

• Monitor for fluid buildup:

  Some fluid buildup under the bandage is normal, but if it becomes excessive or leaks, you may need to remove the bandage and consult your tattoo artist. 

• Follow up with moisturizer:

  After removing the dermshield after 3-5 days, switch to a gentle, fragrance-free lotion to keep the area moisturized. we suggest shea butter, coconut butter, or light coats of coconut oil.

Important considerations:

• Always follow your tattoo artist's specific aftercare instructions; we may have specific recommendations based on the size and location of your tattoo. 

• -Avoid picking or scratching!

  Do not pick at the tattoo, even if it itches, as this can damage the healing process.

•  

• -Protect from sun exposure!

  Once the tattoo is fully healed, always apply sunscreen to protect the colors from fading.
