While the bandage is on, you are free to go about your day in a mostly normal fashion. It’s water-resistant, so you can shower while wearing it, - however, we recommend avoiding prolonged water exposure since water can sometimes find its way in. We recommend wearing loose clothing to prevent abrasion to the bandage and tattoo.
While the bandage is on, you will notice the surface underneath accumulate slight moisture, causing the tattoo to appear blurry. This is plasma building up from your skin, pulling up micro-fragments of ink. It’s completely normal and helps with the healing process.
We recommend keeping the second skin bandage on for 4 to 5 days after your appointment date. Following this duration, slowly remove the bandage under warm running water, or with a skin-safe body oil. Don’t worry, your tattoo may look faded and ugly when you remove the plastic.This is a completely normal process.
The bandage adheres tightly to your skin, so you will need to use some force when removing it. Don’t be alarmed if there are fragments of ink on the bandage - it’s those micro-fragments of ink that have dried on the bandage.
For approximately 10 to 12 days following bandage removal, we recommend using an Organic Coconut oil 4 times a day, or as needed. Apply a smooth, thin layer to the tattoo. Do not oversaturate the area with lotion, as this could potentially harm the healing process, pulling pigment back up.
Should the bandage cause any discomfort or begin to peel off before at least 4 days have passed, remove the bandage (under the same means mentioned above) and supplement treatment for the remaining days with an Coconut Oil
