Aftercare

Tattoo Aftercare with Second Skin

A step-by-step guide for optimal healing of your tattoo. Using transparent, vegan Second-Skin patch — the cleanest and safest method.

01

Right after the tattoo

I apply a sterile Second-Skin patch to the fresh tattoo. It protects against friction, dirt and bacteria in the critical first hours.

02

Change patch the next day

Remove within 24 hours. Wash the area with neutral soap or rinse with clean water. Important: no creams between patch changes.

03

The second patch

The second patch stays on for 7 days. If fluid builds up or it loosens, simply re-apply. After removal, gently wash and apply light moisturiser for 2-3 days.

☀️ Important notes

During the healing week.

Avoid sport

Reduce intense activity to avoid friction and sweat on the tattoo.

No direct sun

Strictly avoid direct sunlight on the fresh tattoo. No solarium for the first 4 weeks.

Quick showers

Avoid long hot showers. Lukewarm water and short shower times are ideal.
