Post-care after a laser session to remove a tattoo.
Once you have made the decision to remove that tattoo that no longer suits you, it is essential to pay attention to the aftercare following a laser session to ensure optimal recovery and preserve your skin. We present you with a list of things you can do and things you should avoid after the treatment:
Post-care after a laser session:
- Apply cold compresses: Use cold compresses or ice wrapped in a clean cloth to alleviate inflammation and reduce the burning sensation in the treated area.
- Keep the skin clean: Gently wash the treated area with warm water and mild soap. Avoid rubbing or scratching the skin.
- Hydrate the skin: Apply a gentle, fragrance-free moisturizer to keep the skin hydrated and promote recovery.
- Wear comfortable clothing: Opt for loose-fitting and soft fabrics to avoid unnecessary friction in the treated area.
- Apply sunscreen: Protect the skin from the sun by using a high SPF sunscreen. Avoid direct sun exposure during the first weeks after the treatment.
- Stay hydrated: Maintain good hydration to promote cell regeneration and faster recovery.
- Consult with the MikiTattoKiller team: If you have any doubts or experience unexpected side effects, don’t hesitate to contact the specialist who performed the treatment.
Things you should NOT 🚫 do:
- Scratching or rubbing the skin: Avoid scratching or rubbing the treated area, as it could cause irritation and delay the healing process.
- Exposing yourself to the sun without protection: The sun can damage the freshly treated skin and cause hyperpigmentation. Cover the treated area or use sunscreen at all times.
- Using irritating products: Avoid using products with aggressive ingredients or fragrances that may irritate sensitive skin.
- Engaging in intense activities: Avoid strenuous exercises and activities that may cause excessive sweating during the first few days after the treatment.
- Taking hot baths: Hot baths can irritate the treated skin, so it’s preferable to opt for warm showers.
- Picking at scabs or blisters: Let the scabs and blisters naturally come off to prevent infections and scarring.
- Applying makeup: Avoid applying makeup to the treated area until the skin has fully healed.
