Second Skin Aftercare Instruction

Congratulations on your new tattoo!

Your tattoo has been covered with a bandage, designed to protect and promote optimal healing. 

Follow these aftercare steps to ensure the best results:

• Leave the Bandage On
  • Keep the Second Skin on for 5 full days.
  • During this time, you may notice fluid (ink, plasma, or blood) accumulating under the bandage. This is normal and part of the healing process.
• Avoid Touching or Adjusting the Bandage
  • Do not poke, peel, or lift the edges of the bandage.
  • Ensure the bandage stays clean and dry.

• Wash Your Hands
  • Before removing the bandage, wash your hands thoroughly with antibacterial soap.
• Remove the Bandage Gently
  • Peel the bandage off slowly, starting from one edge and stretching it away from the skin.
  • If the adhesive feels stuck, apply warm water to loosen it for easier removal.
• Clean Your Tattoo
  • Wash the tattoo gently with lukewarm water and a mild, unscented antibacterial soap.
  • Use your fingertips—avoid scrubbing or using a washcloth.
  • Pat the tattoo dry with a clean paper towel.

• Moisturize Regularly
  • Apply a thin layer of recommended tattoo balm 2-3 times daily.
  • Keep the tattoo hydrated, but avoid over-moisturizing.
• Avoid Soaking
  • No swimming, hot tubs, or baths until the tattoo is fully healed.
  • Limit long showers to avoid prolonged water exposure.
• Protect from the Sun
  • Avoid direct sunlight during the healing process.
  • Once healed, use sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher) to protect your tattoo from fading.

• Peeling and Itching: It’s normal for your tattoo to peel and itch as it heals—do not pick or scratch.
• Scabbing: Minimal scabbing may occur. Let it fall off naturally.

Reach out to us or a medical professional if you notice:

• Persistent redness, swelling, or heat around the tattoo.
• Unusual discharge or an unpleasant odor.
• Severe pain or fever.

For any questions or concerns, contact Renaissance Tattoo Studio at (949) 388-6044.

Enjoy your new tattoo, and thank you for trusting us!

Aftercare Instruction

Congratulations on your new tattoo!

Proper aftercare is essential to ensure it heals beautifully. 

Please follow these instructions:

  Always wash your hands thoroughly with soap and warm water before touching your tattoo.
• Gently Clean Your Tattoo
  • Remove the bandage carefully.
  • Wash your tattoo gently using your fingertips with lukewarm water and a mild, unscented antibacterial soap.
  • Do not use a washcloth, loofah, or sponge.
• Pat Dry
  Use a clean, soft paper towel to gently pat the tattoo dry. Avoid rubbing.
• Apply a Thin Layer of Aftercare Product
  • Use a recommended aftercare ointment.
  • Apply sparingly to avoid suffocating the tattoo.

• Protect from the Sun

  Wear loose, breathable fabrics that won’t stick to your tattoo.
