Tattoo
Aftercare
Thank you for
choosing Dancing Bones Ink, Inc. for your tattoo needs. Use the following method
of aftercare for all tattoos from Dancing Bones Ink, Inc.:
1.
Gently
wash the tattoo once daily with an antibacterial soap (such as Dial) using
fingers only (instead of a washcloth), and pat dry gently.
2.
Use the
sample ointments given to you (Bacitracin or A&D Ointment) as directed to
moisturize your new tattoo or use Emu oil, Tamanu tattoo cream, or any
unscented body cream. This is important to maintain elasticity in your tattooed
skin as it heals so it does not crack the scab and possibly scar your new
tattoo. DO NOT put Vaseline (harbors
bacteria) or Neosporin (allergic reaction) on your tattoo.
3.
To
reduce swelling/pain in the first 24 hours, you may apply ice to the area for
10-15 minutes at a time, allowing at least 15 minutes between icings.
4.
The
tattoo will scab/flake; don’t pick or rub these scabs off as they must come off
naturally.
5.
Your
new tattoo is delicate for the first few weeks. It is important to keep it out
of direct sunlight, and to keep it as dry as possible. (Absolutely no swimming, soaking, or sun tanning for the first 3-4
weeks--After 3-4 weeks you can party in the Hot Tub till you wrinkle!)
Please come
back and show off your healed tattoo!
If
you have any questions about your new tattoo, please feel free to give us a
call!
