Special Instructions
-
If the Sandiderm wrap is causing itchiness and feels irritated and red around the edges, you may have an allergic to the product.
-
In this case, gently please remove the wrap in the shower and care for your tattoo by cleansing with antibacterial soap 2x/day, and moisturizing 2x/day for about 4 days.
-
Please do not hesitate to reach out to us with any questions or concerns following your appointment.
-
A reminder that fine line tattoos often require touch ups. The thinner the line, your type of skin, and/or the placement of your tattoo may contribute to your possible need for a touch up. A single letter or something tiny may be complimentary. The retouching of an entire tattoo does not require a deposit and is usually $50.
