How to remove film from a tattoo

Perhaps I will surprise you with my discovery, but innovation has even touched such a field as tattoo. How? Let me explain now.

Everyone knows that the process of wound healing after tattooing is quite long and not easy. Previously, the owner of the tattoo had to devote quite a lot of time to caring for it.

The fresh tattoo was covered with cling film and treated with creams. However, the healing process was not always successful. The wound under the film melted, and later it could fester in everything. Of course, the quality of the tattoo could suffer greatly. Not to mention health.

At the moment, neither the master nor the customer has to worry so much about the healing results. The most important thing is that they comply with all sanitary standards.

Instead of cling film, a special film, developed for shallow wounds, is now quite successfully used, which protects and at the same time does not interfere with the skin's breathing. The regeneration process under these conditions is twice as fast and better.

The film is tightly fixed on the wound thanks to a special anti-allergenic glue. It can be removed for about 5 or 6 days. Before this procedure, it is advisable to steam the skin. If steaming the skin does not help to remove the film, then you can carefully dry the film with a hairdryer, after which it should go away faster.

After removing the film, you will need to rinse the place where the fresh tattoo is pricked and lubricate the skin with moisturizer.

Sometimes the tattoo will no longer require any additional care after removing the film. Except for occasionally smearing it with sunscreen. It may be that by the time the film is removed, the upper layers of the skin will not have time to completely heal. And at this place, for some time, contraction and dryness will be felt. Then the skin will need to continue to be treated with a moisturizer for some time.

Unfortunately, it also happens that not all the pigment takes root successfully on the wearable drawing. And after removing the film, the tattoo will have to be restored over a new one.

The duration and success of healing will depend not only on the film, but also on the scale of the tattoo and the quality of the work of the master himself. In addition, the obligation to leave the client cannot be completely removed. He must remember that hot baths should not be taken in the first weeks. Go to the sauna, visit the bathhouse and swim in ponds and pools. For the first five days, you should not bother the area of ​​the body under the film once again. You do not need to peel off the film and even more try to scratch the tattoo site.
