Tattooing over a scar
Want to hide a mark you find unsightly? Want to transform a painful event into something positive?
Covering a scar with a tattoo is possible, but it depends on several factors.
In general, the scar should be healed: the skin is no longer pink (but white) and no longer hurts to the touch.
How can I be sure?
The best thing to do is ask healthcare professionals like your dermatologist and your general practitioner.
Is it more difficult?
This is a classic tattooing procedure. But It is possible that damaged skin may not absorb the ink very well.
Is it more painful?
Tattooing over a scar may be more painful because the skin may be more sensitive. But some people may also lose sensitivity in this areaIf the scar to be covered is related to a painful event, the tattoo can awaken a form of psychological pain recalling a more or less traumatic memory. Therefore, you need to feel ready to move on to something else.
