This is a self-adhesive absorbent dressing in a 10 m x 15 cm roll format, designed to protect a fresh tattoo immediately after the session. The superabsorbent material takes up excess plasma and fluids from the first stage of healing, and the roll allows you to cut exactly the size you need. It is a practical choice for both tattoo studios and clients caring for their tattoo at home.
How does this dressing differ from the transparent 'second skin' type film?▾
Soaker Film is specifically designed to absorb the excess plasma and fluids that the skin releases during the initial healing phase, whereas classic transparent films tend to seal the area. That is why it is intended for the first hours after the session, when the tattoo secretes the most, reducing discomfort and protecting against friction with clothing.
How long do I keep the dressing on the tattoo?▾
It is intended for the first stage of healing, immediately after tattooing, and can be worn both day and night. The exact duration is determined by your artist based on the tattoo and how much exudate the skin releases; if the dressing becomes saturated or starts to peel off, replace it with a new piece.
Can I sleep with it on my skin?▾
Yes, the product description explicitly mentions wearing it both day and night. The thin, flexible material is comfortable during sleep and protects the tattoo from friction with bedding.
How do I remove it correctly and what do I do after?▾
Wash your hands, then gently peel it off at a low angle to the skin — it is easiest under lukewarm water in the shower, where the adhesive gives way more easily. After removal, wash the tattoo with a mild soap, pat it dry, and continue the aftercare recommended by your artist. The used piece should be discarded, not reapplied.
Do I need a bandage or anything else to secure it?▾
No. The dressing is self-adhesive and does not require bandages or additional fixing systems. The condition is to apply it to clean, dry skin, with a margin of a few centimeters around the tattoo so the adhesive has something to stick to.
Is the roll format worth it for personal use, or is it only for studios?▾
It is suitable for both. The 10 m x 15 cm roll is an economical format designed primarily for professional use, but it works just as well at home: you cut only what you need for each dressing change, and the rest remains protected in the packaging for future tattoos.
