LASER TATTOO REMOVAL — aftercare until healed

Tattoo Removal Aftercare Until Healed — texto íntegro

MOISTURIZE: Keep treatment site well moisturized with WIFH Heal Ointment or Aquaphor. Again, do not use Neosporin as this may increase the chance of blistering.

ACTIVITIES: Patients may resume activities unless a blister is present. Avoid swimming pools, ocean, and hot tub and tub soaking pedicures for 5-7 days until healed.

BLISTERING: Blistering is normal. DO NOT BREAK the blister. If the blister is uncomfortable, call our office. We may need to drain it. Blisters can take up to 1-2 weeks to resolve. Patients can use a non-stick bandage to protect the blister. If blister does break, apply WIFH Heal ointment or Aquaphor and a non-stick bandage.

HEALING: Do not pick or remove scabs or crusts that develop during the healing process. This is a leading cause of infection and can lead to scarring. Healing can take anywhere from to 5 to 25 days (or more). Infections are rare. However if aftercare is not followed they can occur. The signs to look for are foul odor, fever, red streaks from area, yellow-green drainage, and pain. Patients should call the office if they suspect an infection.

BEFORE THE NEXT TREATMENT: Should be booked in 6-12 weeks. It takes the body up to four weeks to break down the ink so results will not be immediate, and every treatment will react differently.

NEXT APPOINTMENT: Should be booked in 6-12 weeks. It takes the body up to four weeks to break down the ink so results will not be immediate and every treatment will react differently.

If patients ever question if something they are experiencing is normal, please call us we are always happy to help. It’s better to be safe and know.
