Tips In Caring For Your Fresh New Tattoo Design

By Scott Murray


Nearly every person has thought about getting a tattoo at least once in their whole lives. Whether you plan to get a black and white finish or a colorful one with intricate details, experts suggest taking care of your new design as it heals. Here are some handy care tips for your Portland metal tattoo art.

The modern tattooing process is generally sanitary although it may have some risks. In this procedure, artists may use an electric machine which inserts ink into the skin by a needle which is connected to a unit. The equipment then repeatedly drives the needles in and out of the skin to create your desired image which can last for a few minutes or hours depending on the size of the work.

Keep your bandage on for twenty four hours. After your time is up, gently wash your tattoo with antimicrobial soap and lukewarm water. Gently pat your art dry with a soft fluffy towel. Follow this step with a thin layer of moisturizing cream. If you are not sure which brand to use, ask your artist for some recommendations.

However, in most scenarios a bandage is applied over the newly done art coupled with some petroleum jelly. Once these items are applied, individuals may be asked to keep them on from three to a full day to allow the immediate scars to heal. Once their time limit is up, they may also be encouraged to wash their new artwork with gentle soap.

As soon as you are finished with washing, pat the area dry with a towel. After it is dry, apply some antibacterial ointment or cream to keep the skin hydrated while also preventing tiny microorganisms to penetrate through the wounds. Depending on said instructions, ointment application may be applied two times a day or on an as needed basis. To get the best option available ask your artist for brand suggestions.

While a person is expected to wash the spot regularly, they should avoid swimming or soaking in a tub for a few weeks or even a month. This is to prevent the ink from running which can eventually make the design fade. While showers are fine, make sure limit the time to prevent potential damage.

For persons who notice some scabbing or hard layers developing, remember not to worry since this is completely normal. Should these signs appear, do not pick, scratch, or peel these symptoms since it can invite further infection. If you think your design is susceptible to the latter, schedule an appointment with your doctor as soon as possible.

Last but not least is to keep patient. Large and intricate designs generally have a longer healing period than small options. If you are planning to get the former, remember to stay disciplined at all times and follow your after care routine completely to ensure your design stays attractive for a long time. Remember, this will all be worth it.

Like most body modifications, body art require constant care and maintenance to help them last a long time. While different parlors offer various direct aftercare tips, it helps to research on other options just in case. Should you need medical expertise, visit a doctor or dermatologist to get your questions and concerns addressed.
