The duration that a Saniderm bandage remains adhered to newly tattooed skin is a critical factor in the healing process. This transparent, adhesive bandage creates a moist environment conducive to cellular regeneration and protects the fresh tattoo from external contaminants.
Leaving the bandage on for the appropriate length of time offers several benefits, including reduced scabbing, minimized risk of infection, and enhanced color retention in the tattoo. Historically, traditional tattoo aftercare involved dry healing methods, which often resulted in thicker scabs and a longer healing period. Saniderm revolutionized aftercare by promoting a more efficient and comfortable healing experience.
