To ensure your treatment with our picosecond laser at ETINK LASER goes optimally and you achieve the best possible results, we ask you to carefully follow these recommendations:

 

2 weeks before the treatment
– Avoid direct sunlight on the tattoo being treated.
Please also refrain from visiting tanning salons.

 

On the day of treatment
– The skin must be clean, dry and untanned.
– Do not use make-up, creams, or perfume in the treatment area.
– There must be no skin irritations, rashes or open injuries.

 

During treatment
– Wearing eye protection is mandatory throughout the entire session.
– To relieve pain and minimize side effects, we use our cryotherapy device: A cold air jet at temperatures as low as -30 °C cools the skin before, during and after treatment.
Breaks are possible at any time – we don't charge by the minute, but place the greatest value on your well-being.

 

After treatment – For optimal healing (weeks 1–5)
– Apply Bepanthen Plus thinly 2–3 times daily (during the first 2 weeks).
– From week 3 to week 5: Apply once daily.
– If possible: Allow the skin to breathe. Otherwise, cover with sterile gauze.
– Then apply a regenerating cream (e.g. Cicalfate by Avène or Cicaplast by La Roche-Posay).

 

What you should avoid in the first 2 weeks
– Bathing, swimming pools, steam baths, sauna
– Sports that cause heavy sweating
– Direct sunlight & tanning beds
– Do not scratch or remove scabs or blisters – the skin should heal naturally.

 

Long-term protection
– After the healing phase: when in the sun, apply sun protection factor 50 to the treated area of skin to protect it from UV radiation.

 

Please also read carefully the consent and medical history form that you received before your first session.
