Second Skin

Wearing the Second Skin

  • Keep the film on your skin for exactly2 days (48 hours). This provides the best protection against infections.
  • Do not be alarmed if dark fluid builds up under the film. This is normal and helps the healing process.
  • Remove it early only if water gets underneath or if you sweat heavily under the film.

Removing the Film

  • Gently peel the film off. Do not rip it off suddenly! It is easier under lukewarm running water.
  • Wash thoroughly using antibacterial or pH-neutral, fragrance-free soap and water.
  • Gently pat it dry with a clean paper towel. Let it air dry for 10–15 minutes.

Further Care

  • Apply a very thin layer of specialized tattoo aftercare cream.
  • Clean and re-apply the cream 3–4 times a day until the peeling is finished.

After Peeling

  • After 7-10 days when the peeling stops, put simple body lotion on the tattoo for 1-2 months. This helps the skin to regenerate.
