Lucky-Hand Tattoo Aftercare

Contact Us for Further Aftercare Instructions

  • Wash your new tattoo 2-3 times daily with Antibacterial Soap (Dial)

  • After each wash, carefully apply a thin coat of healing ointment (We prefer Hustle Butter)

  • DO NOT over-medicate. Keep the tattoo out of direct sunlight as often as possible.

  • Once dryness or peeling occurs, discontinue use of ointment and switch to a non-scented skin healing lotion after each wash (Lubriderm, Aveeno)

  • DO NOT soak your tattoo and DO NOT pick or scratch during healing. ENJOY!

Recovery Derm Shield

Directions for Use:
Gently clean and pat dry the tattoo and surrounding area, ensuring there is no soap or any residue on the skin. With clean gloves, remove Derm Shield from the sterile pouch. Cut the Derm Shield to cover tattooed area plus a 1 to 2 inch margin from the edge of the tattoo. Peel off backing to expose adhesive side and position the Derm Shield over the tattoo with the adhesive side facing the skin. Gently apply using light pressure, starting from the center to the edges to eliminate air bubbles. Do not stretch the Derm Shield during application.

The first Derm Shield application should stay in place for 24 hours, depending on level of exudation. It is normal for blood and fluids to collect under the bandage.

A second application can be used for several days, and a third application may be used if necessary. Gently clean and dry the area between applications. Do not wear any piece longer than one week.


Directions for Removal:
Gently peel the Derm Shield by pulling it slowly from the edge back over itself. Do not pull the bandage upwards.
