It should go away. It may tske a bit, or not long at all. Probably just where it was tugging.
-
I used aveno.

I had to replace my tega derm after oozing. It's in my elbow crease. Had some acne that popped (yuk) when taking it off. I washed it best I could with antibacterial soap. Hopefully, it won't cause an issue (as far as spreading bacteria)
-
Maybe with rib cage showing
-
Here is my latest sleeve progress. I'm trying to figure out where to go from here. I'm slowly getting the tattoos to flow together. I was thinking a dead crow with blue eyes.

I've I'e had to change this tega derm two times already. I've used it four other times with tattoos, only had to change it one time. It's in my elbow crease, just a ton if plasma.

I've used get a term on 4 tattoos, but not in my elbow crease. It's always worked like gold. However, I just applied it to my elbow crease (with a slight bend) it lays down flat everywhere, but not around the bend (gap between seem and skin) I'm assuming this is fine? Don't see any other way to get it to adhere at all angles since it's in the crease.

Thoughts on applying tegaderm the day after getting a new tattoo that has almost no plasma leaking? Edit: just went for it. My wife applied it. I wish I had bought the roll, but didn't wait. Ended up using (4) 4x4 and (3) 2x2. There are some overlaps. Not exactly the smoothest, seems its kinda of wrinkly. Could just be it's because it's a mobile spot. Also, within 30 minutes I could see moisture building up in the creases. Normal?

Just got it today:

Thanks again everyone I appreciate it. It flared up pretty bad tonight, no red past the line work. Went red around the lines and the areas there was no ink. Skin all went light red and it is slowly going back to normal. I'm wondering if I didn't get into something around the house that caused it to do that.
-
Thanks again! Just going to let it dry heal and keep it clean a ton this point. I've got another larger tattoo getting done Friday. Probably a four hour session or longer it looks like.
-
Thanks the reply! Whats funny is that's just my wolf like fur on the underside of my forearm, lol. Ive noticed it's not red in the morning. It's mostly after I wash it and apply curel or hustle butter. But I'll make sure and use less. I'm sure it's normal, but it's my first tattoo, but whenever I pat it dry I get a clear mirror image of the line work of my tattoo on the paper towel. Pretty normal for day 5?
-
Can't start my own topic as of yet. Day 5 and my tattoo seems pretty aggravated. Don't think it's infected, looks to be more dry and aggravated. Thoughts?
-
Yeah, I've backed off to fragrance free Curel. Everything seems good, the outlines seem to transfer over to the paper towel when I pat it dry.
-
Yeah, wasn't sure if I was going too much with the cleaning or not. Usually when I dry it the line work will leave an imprint on the paper towel.

Got my first tattoo Saturday. Already have the next planned (skull with old school revolver and blue rose) Tons of information here. All I'm doing is antibacterial soap three times a day and hustle butter 15 minutes after. Shower I just wash it with Dr Bronners. Loving this tattoo. First day (right after) got it done by 9pm Second one: just took it this morning.
