Give your tattoos the healthy recovery they deserve with Derm Shield. Acting as a barrier against dirt, bacteria, and abrasion, Derm Shield promotes a comfortable, hygienic healing process free of scabbing or scarring.
Derm Shield is a light, waterproof composite film bandage comprised of three layers: EVA film, PU film, and glassine. The PU film, which is the part of the bandage that remains on and protects the skin after tattooing, allows for optimal breathability and ductility.

Directions for Application:
Gently clean and pat dry the tattoo and surrounding area, ensuring there is no soap or any residue on the skin. With clean gloves, remove Derm Shield from the sterile pouch. Cut the Derm Shield to cover tattooed area plus a 1 to 2 inch margin from the edge of the tattoo. Peel off backing to expose adhesive side and position the Derm Shield over the tattoo with the adhesive side facing the skin. Gently apply using light pressure, starting from the center to the edges to eliminate air bubbles. Do not stretch the Derm Shield during application. The first Derm Shield application should stay in place for 24 hours, depending on level of exudation. It is normal for blood and fluids to collect under the bandage.
A second application can be used for up to 5 days, and a third application may be used if necessary. Gently clean and dry the area between applications. Do not wear any piece longer than 1 week.
Directions for Removal:
Gently peel the Derm Shield by pulling it slowly from the edge back over itself. Do not pull the bandage upwards.
