Step-by-step Guide to Healing Fresh Tattoos and Caring for Old Ones with Dr.Gritz's InkSaver Cream

Tattoos are true skin art. But to keep your artwork bright and crisp for many years, proper care is essential. Here, we’ll guide you on how to heal your tattoo with InkSaver cream and preserve its colors.

Why is proper care important?

After tattooing, your skin may become dry and sensitive. This is normal, but you need to protect it to:

  • Reduce the risk of inflammation and infections.

  • Speed up the healing process.

  • Maintain vibrant colors.

  • Avoid scars and damage.

Why is InkSaver the best tattoo healing cream?

InkSaver is a tattoo care cream based on D-panthenol, vitamins A and E, with aloe and calendula extracts. It:

  • Moisturizes the skin and prevents dryness.

  • Protects the tattoo during healing.

  • Improves skin texture, enhancing the color foundation.

  • Keeps skin healthy without harming the tattoo.

Step-by-step tattoo healing guide

  1. Cleaning after tattooing: Remove the film 2-3 hours after the session. Wash your skin with warm water without soap. Gently pat your skin dry with a soft towel.

  2. Applying InkSaver healing cream: Apply the cream gently to dry skin. Don’t overdo it — a thin layer of cream is enough for effective hydration and protection.

  3. Regular tattoo care: Apply the cream 2-3 times a day during the first week. Avoid mechanical damage, direct sunlight, and swimming pools.

  4. Caring for healed tattoos: Continue using InkSaver cream for daily hydration and to maintain vibrant colors.

What to avoid during healing?

  • Don’t touch your tattoo with dirty hands.

  • Avoid alcohol-based products.

  • Steer clear of tight clothing that rubs against the skin.

  • Don’t pick at scabs — they should fall off naturally.
