Can I Exercise While Wearing Second Skin?

Answered by Sude ErdemTattoo artist in Los Angeles

I recommend avoiding intense exercise while the second skin is on. Heavy sweating can build up moisture underneath the bandage, weaken the adhesive, and cause the edges to lift.

Light activity is usually fine as long as the second skin stays completely sealed and the tattooed area is not being stretched or rubbed excessively.
