LASER TATTOO AFTERCARE

  • The treated area must be dressed after procedure. This dressing is water resistant but not waterproof. When it falls off apply more ointment we recommend Dr Pickles Tattoo Balm and dress area again. Keep covered whilst healing especially if there are blisters or scabs.

  • Avoid soaking for 24 to 48 hours. No hot tubs, whirlpools, ocean or pool swims, or baths, but showers are okay.

  • Avoid excessive sweating for 24 to 48 hours. No saunas or vigorous working out.

  • Keep areas well moisturised and allow scabs to fall off on their own. This is an expected occurrence with tattoo/pigment removal.

  • Avoid irritants such as Retina-A, Retinol, Renovo, glycolics, bleaching creams and exfoliants for one week.

  • Refrain from alcohol for 3-7 days.

  • It is best avoid smoking for a period of several weeks before and after your procedure, as smoking constricts the capillaries and taxes the immune system, thereby slowing healing and results.

  • If necessary take over-the-counter pain or anti-inflammatory medication.

  • Hydrocortisone (steroid) cream may decrease any itching or skin irritation. Antibiotic ointment (such as Neosporin) may be used if skin is broken to prevent infection.

  • Cold compressions can be used to reduce swelling and heat.

  • Avoid sun exposure and tanning creams during the entire course of treatments. Use SPF 30 or greater on the treatment area at all times.

  • One week after laser removal / fading treatment we recommend an LED treatment of the area.
