Second skin or bandage? The most important facts about tattoo care

The art of tattooing has developed rapidly in recent decades--and with it, the demands placed on aftercare. Whereas simple household remedies were once used to cover fresh tattoos, the Old Dragon Ink studio now relies on specialized solutions from modern wound care. In a new expert guide, owner Dimitri Zaharcenko explains why choosing the right care method is crucial for the longevity and brilliance of body art. Progress instead of habit: the advantages of "second skin" In his latest video guide, the expert from Old Dragon Ink compares the most common healing methods. A special focus is placed on the so-called "shower plaster" (Second Skin). "It's not about demonizing old methods, but about creating the best possible conditions for the skin," explains the tattoo artist. These modern film dressings are highly elastic, breathable, and make everyday life much easier for customers, as they offer direct protection against friction and water.

Individual care for individual works of art Not all skin and not all tattoos are the same. While classic cling film still has its place for short-term protection immediately after tattooing, Old Dragon Ink recommends specialized absorbent compresses or the "Second Skin" film for the following days. "The goal is to create an optimal wound environment. We want to prevent the skin from softening or drying out too much under air-impermeable layers," the owner continues. Prevention through education Especially in summer, dangers such as UV radiation and heat lurk, which are often underestimated. The new guide provides practical tips on dealing with sun, sports, and proper cleaning of tattooed areas. An important part of the information provided is also "troubleshooting": How can you tell the difference between harmless mechanical skin irritation at the edge of the plaster and a genuine intolerance? About Old Dragon Ink The Old Dragon Ink studio stands for a combination of traditional craftsmanship and modern hygiene standards. Skin health and customer satisfaction are our top priorities.
