Aftercare

 1. After 3 hours, remove the bandage gently and wash with warm water and mild soap. DO NOT REBANDAGE. 

2. Apply a thin layer of Aquaphor, A&D Ointment, or the like 3 times a day for the next 3 days. After 3 days, use an unscented hand lotion like Lubriderm or Curel, until skin returns to its pre-tattoo condition. 

3. Stay out of sunlight and tanning booths until tattoo is healed, at least 7-10 days.

 4. Do not soak tattoo in tub, sauna, jacuzzi or go swimming while your new tattoo is healing. Showers are fine. 

5. DO NOT RUB or PICK the treated area while it is healing. Loss of color and/or infection could occur. 

6. Extreme sun and exposure over the years can and will fade your tattoo. This can be minimized by using a strong sunscreen, at least SP25. 

7. Your tattoo should heal in 2 weeks. Consult a physician and file a report with the Environmental Health Office where the tattoo establishment is permitted if any signs or symptoms develop such as redness at site, green/yellow discharge (foul smelling) and/or fever. 

8. Do not listen to your friends about the healing process of tattoos!

1. Leave the jewelry in place. Do not remove or change the jewelry during the healing period. Removing it too early can cause the piercing to close and trap bacteria.
2. Clean the piercing 2–3 times per day using a sterile saline solution or piercing aftercare spray. Gently clean around the jewelry to remove any buildup. Do not use alcohol, hydrogen peroxide, or harsh soaps, as these can irritate and delay healing.
3. Always wash your hands thoroughly before touching your piercing. Avoid unnecessary handling, twisting, or playing with the jewelry, as this can cause irritation and infection.
4. Do not soak your piercing in pools, hot tubs, lakes, oceans, or bathtubs during the initial healing period. Showers are fine. If exposure occurs, rinse the piercing with clean water and saline afterward.
5. Avoid sleeping directly on the piercing and protect it from pressure, friction, or trauma from clothing, headphones, helmets, or other objects.
6. Some redness, swelling, tenderness, and clear or slightly yellow discharge is normal during healing. This is part of the natural healing process.
7. Healing times vary depending on the location of the piercing and your body. Most piercings take several weeks to several months to fully heal. If you notice severe redness, excessive swelling, green/yellow discharge with odor, or fever, consult a physician immediately.
8. Do not listen to advice from friends or unqualified sources regarding piercing care. Follow these instructions carefully for best results
