Cool New Tattoo! :D - September 8th 2009, 04:19 AM

I just got my first tattoo yesterday! Anyway, I've been washing it four times a day.
My first question is, which is best to clean it with, Lubriderm, A&D, or Aquaphor? The paper of aftercare lists all three, but I was wondering how each of them worked for others.
My second questions is how do you know when it is healed? I was told that the swelling would go down and it would be flat. However, mine is like this after one day. Am I looking at it wrong? Can someone describe it differently maybe?
Thanks!
