EoL Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 (edited) 1 minute ago, Dan said: I have tried them all over the years and I think Aveeno is the best product out there. I like Aveeno too but I never bothered to look at the ingredients and it has alcohol in it. I didn't know some lotions had alcohol.

ptcruzar Posted December 10, 2019 Author Share Posted December 10, 2019 (edited) Well I’ll definitely not use Cetaphil again. Aveeno was also recommended, so was unscented lubriderm. I use Cerave unscented lotion on it now with no complaints. Edited December 10, 2019 by ptcruzar oboogie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
valerie.1018 Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 Okay i really appreciate you because i got diagnosed with cellulitis too on my lower left leg on my calf kind of and it was soooo swollen and read and it hurt but i have not put any ointments on it because i air dry tattoos until it’s too dry and then I’ll put a little lubriderm on it. Got it Tuesday went to the doctors Friday and got antibiotics as well. It’s really scarred already but i was adding to my leg sleeve and was my second tattoo with this artist. Fingers are crossed because this shit hurts. SStu 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time heals all ❤️ Tattoo is 17 days old now. I highly recommend going to the dr right away if you think something weird is going on. I have cellulitis too in both of ny new tattoos one on each leg ☹️ am on day 1 of flucloxacillin 4x a day. Am more worried about the cellulitis getting worse than how the tattoo turns out rn, I want the antibiotics to hurry up & work but this post has given me hope, thankyou 🙂 On 7/14/2023 at 1:51 PM, tracy100 said: I'm so glad I have seen this.

TNDLV Posted December 2, 2023 Share Posted December 2, 2023 Hello, I am having this issue now and came across your helpful post. If you see this, can you comment as to if you’re also cracked and bled. I starts antibiotics and antibiotic ointment per my doctor and the artist is aware. A very reputable one that has done several of my tattoos but this is the first time this has ever happened and it’s front and center on my chest so I’m horrified it will be a blob.

I had an infected tattoo once, and it was nothing to do with the artist. After antibiotics, I got it touched up a few months later, and it is fine.
