FAQ

Fresh tattoo aftercare:

• Remove the protective film after the session.
• Wash the tattoo right away with warm water and soap.
• Pat it dry with a clean towel or napkin.
• Let the tattoo breathe for about 1 hour — do not cover it with anything.
• Apply a thin layer of BEPANTHEN+ ointment.
• When going to bed, protect the tattoo (with a cotton T-shirt or pyjamas).
• Do not pick at scabs that form — they will fall off on their own. Do not scratch. Relieve any itching by patting lightly.
• Apply a thin layer of BEPANTHEN+ ointment 3 times a day, for 10 days.

For the first week, avoid:

• Direct sunlight.
• Tanning beds.
• Any dirt.
• The sauna.
• Open water and swimming pools.
• Synthetic or woollen fabrics.

The most commonly painful spots are the ribs, palms and head — but it varies a lot from person to person.

A palm-sized tattoo can usually be finished in a single day. Larger pieces take several sessions. It all depends on the design and the artist.
