In the first case, on cleansed and dried skin, we apply cream, then cover it with foil, securing its edges with a plaster. And here we require care from you already in the first hours after the procedure! Before changing the dressing applied in the studio, you should thoroughly wash your hands, then remove the foil, wash the tattoo with lukewarm water and soap, gently massaging the skin to cleanse it from the accumulated secretion under the foil. Dry the tattoo with a paper towel, pressing it, never rubbing it, then apply a thin layer of cream and cover it again. Repeat the process of washing, drying, moisturizing, and covering with foil for the next 3 days, 3-5 times a day, and for the next 14 days, continue the care omitting the foil!
In the case of using a dermalize foil, which creates an antibacterial barrier while providing waterproofing and allowing vapor transmission, you don't need to do anything in the first day. However, blood mixed with ink will accumulate under the foil, so we recommend that - after 24 hours from the tattooing procedure - you peel off the dressing and wash the tattooed area with water and soap. Then, you should apply a fresh self-adhesive foil or apply cream to the dried skin and protect it in the classic way. Then, proceed as with the food wrap.
Dermalize requires less effort from the client because we change it once a day, but applying the dressing itself can be much more difficult.
