1. Protect Your Tattoo
  • Avoid soaking the tattooed area (like baths or swimming) for the first 24 hours.
  • Keep it away from water, sweat, and chemicals until fully healed.
2. Cleanliness and Hygiene
  • Gently wash the area with mild, fragrance-free soap and lukewarm water.
  • Avoid scrubbing or using rough sponges on the tattooed area.
3. Moisturization
  • Use the recommended tattoo-specific ointments to keep the skin moisturized.
  • Skip any unapproved or scented lotions, as these can irritate the skin.
4. Covering and Sun Protection
  • Keep the tattoo away from direct sunlight and avoid tanning beds.
  • When necessary, cover it with a clean, breathable bandage.
5. Avoid Manipulation
  • Don’t scratch, rub, or pick at the tattooed skin—it’s healing!
  • If you notice any unusual redness or irritation, reach out to us for advice.
6. Follow Personal Recommendations
  • Every tattoo is unique, so follow any specific aftercare instructions provided by your artist.
7. Stay Hydrated and Rested

Aftercare for Your Piercing

Essential Tips for a Comfortable Healing Process

Taking care of your new piercing is key to a smooth healing journey. Here are our recommended steps to keep it clean and healthy:

1. Keep It Clean
  • Clean the area with a saline solution or an antiseptic recommended by your piercer.
  • Avoid alcohol or hydrogen peroxide, as they can be too harsh and may irritate the piercing.
2. Avoid Touching
  • Try not to touch or twist the piercing unless absolutely necessary. When you do, make sure your hands are thoroughly clean.
  • Keeping it hands-off helps it heal faster and prevents irritation.
3. Stay Dry
  • Avoid soaking your piercing in pools, hot tubs, or any body of water until it’s fully healed.
  • After cleaning, gently pat it dry with a clean, disposable paper towel to keep it fresh and dry.
4. Avoid Irritants
  • Keep hair products, lotions, and perfumes away from the area to avoid irritation.
  • Sleeping on the side of the piercing can also cause discomfort, so try to sleep on the opposite side.
5. Monitor for Issues
  • Watch for any signs of infection like redness, swelling, or unusual discharge.
  • If anything seems off, don’t hesitate to reach out. We’re here to help and provide advice.
6. Follow Personal Instructions
  • Every piercing is unique, so follow any specific aftercare advice given by your piercer for the best results.

By following these aftercare tips, you’ll help your piercing heal comfortably and beautifully. Remember, if you have any questions or concerns, the team at Mehrdad Ink Studio is here to support you throughout the healing process.
