What cream is best to use post laser tattoo removal treatment?

Thank you for your question in regards to tattoo removal. Post care can vary among providers. Although, Aquaphor which is an over the counter ointment can be used as well. To be sure what is best for you, see two or more board-certified providers in your area for a complete evaluation to make sure you are a good candidate and that it is safe for you to have treatment. I hope this helps.

I always recommend using an over the counter ointment Aquaphor for post laser tattoo removal. It is a barrier that moisturizes and protects the area. Hope this helps. Best, Dr. Green

I recommend to my patients to apply Aquaphor or Vaseline to the treated area. Make sure to cover the area with a non-stick bandage, such as gauze. It is very important to follow your physician’s aftercare instructions.
