Aftercare for your laser tattoo removal with Reverse-A-Tat!

---

After your procedure, you may experience some redness, swelling and scabbing and sometimes blistering. This is a normal process as the body works to eliminate the tattoo pigment. As advised, the fragmented pigment is removed internally by scavenger cells within your body. An antiseptic powder and a dressing will be applied following your procedure.  

Aftercare:

·  Following your treatment, the skin will be cooled 

·  MediPulv Antiseptic Powder will be applied to the treated area 

·  Please leave the non-stick dressing on the skin for 24-48 hours

·  Avoid excessive heat in the skin (exercise, hot bath, shower, sauna for 24-48 hrs.) 

·  Do not expose the treated skin to the sun 

·  Use SPF 50+ when in the sun as well as protective clothing 

·  Do not pick or scratch the treated skin

·  Avoid injury to the treated skin 

·  Once the treated area has returned to normal, apply MediCreme twice daily 

·  The treated area may feel slightly sunburned for a few days and cold packs can be applied for comfort 

·  The treated skin may remain red and puffy for up to a few weeks 

·  It’s common to develop an itching sensation in the area even weeks after a removal session

In case of:

· If there is any crusting or oozing from the treated area, continue applying MediPulv after cleansing and cover with a bandage. Keep the treated area covered 24 hours a day until all crusting is gone. 

· If blisters form, which is not unusual in early sessions or when your tattoo was a cover-up, do not puncture them. Let them reabsorb or break naturally and keep covered with MediPulv and a bandage. 

· Do not pick any crusting or scab as you may cause scarring.

· Avoid swimming or using hot tubs until the skin has returned to normal. 

· Should you experience increasing pain, redness, oozing or develop a temperature over 38ºC, after the first two days, please call your doctor immediately.
