AREOLA AFTERCARE
Tegaderm After Procedure Instructions
Tegaderm, a sterile,. Leave the Tegaderm on for 1-5 DAYS - do not lift it, change it or remove it.
Tegaderm is breathable and water resistant to protect your new tattoo from infection,

irritation and clothing during the healing process.

It will also protect your clothes.
You may notice fluid building up inside the Tegaderm.

This is normal and your body will reabsorb it.

You can perform all your usual activities (including light exercise) while the tattoo is covered with Tegaderm.

Be sure not to bump or rub your new tattoo excessively, or do anything that will scrape or peel the covering off.
Showering will not affect Tegaderm; it is reasonably waterproof.

You can shower normally while healing. However, do not bathe or swim until your tattoo is fully healed.


- After 3 days, remove the Tegaderm by carefully peeling it off of your skin. Do not quickly tear it off, as this can cause skin irritation.

The easiest way to soften the adhesive is to stand in a hot shower for several minutes and remove the covering in the shower.


After removing the covering, rinse the tattoo thoroughly with warm water and wash, then rinse several times using antibacterial soap and warm water. Gently work any excess material off the surface of your skin using the palm of your hand.

While washing, do not use any washcloths, sponges or brushes.


After patting your tattoo dry with a clean towel, the skin may look shiny.

Allow the area to air dry for 45 minutes and then apply a thin layer of the supplied lotion.


- For the next 7-10 days, apply a thin layer of the supplied lotion once a day and again if it feels tight, dry, or itchy.

You might notice a few layers of flaky skin peeling, this is completely normal.


Do not sweat excessively / exercise until the tattoo is healed.

This could take up to 10 days. Once there are no more visible scabs, and the area looks like normal skin again, you can resume exercise.
