Bandage → 3 & 3 → 2 Until Healed

Healing your tattoo is simple. Just follow these steps.

STEP 1: LEAVE THE BANDAGE ON

If you received a tattoo bandage:

• Leave it on for 1–3 days.

• You may shower while wearing it.

• If the bandage starts peeling and your tattoo becomes exposed, or if water, dirt, or anything else gets underneath it, remove the bandage and move to Step 2.

If your tattoo was wrapped with plastic wrap instead:

• Leave the wrap on for 4–6 hours.

• Remove the wrap.

• Do not re-wrap your tattoo.

• Move to Step 2.

STEP 2: 3 & 3

(Wash 3 times daily for 3 days)

For the next 3 days:

• Wash your tattoo 3 times a day using Dial Gold Antibacterial Soap.

• Pat dry with a clean paper towel.

• Apply a very thin layer of Aquaphor after every wash.

Tip: If your tattoo looks shiny, you’ve applied too much Aquaphor.

STEP 3: 2 UNTIL HEALED

(Wash 2 times daily until healed)

After using Aquaphor for 3 days, switch to Lubriderm Fragrance-Free Lotion.

• Wash your tattoo 2 times a day using Dial Gold Antibacterial Soap.

• Apply Lubriderm Fragrance-Free Lotion after each wash.

• If your tattoo feels dry during the day, apply a small amount of lotion as needed.

Continue until your tattoo has completely finished peeling and feels smooth.

WHILE YOUR TATTOO IS HEALING

• Avoid direct sunlight.

• Do not swim or soak your tattoo.

• Do not scratch or pick at your tattoo.

• Avoid baths and hot tubs.

• Avoid tight clothing rubbing against your tattoo.
