Can I Get Tattooed Over a Scar?

Answered by Sude ErdemTattoo artist in Los Angeles

Yes, in many cases scars can be tattooed over, but the scar needs to be fully healed first. Fresh, red, raised, irritated, or still-changing scar tissue should not be tattooed.

Send me a clear photo of the area before booking. I can evaluate the texture, age, and condition of the scar and tell you whether it is ready to work on or needs more time.
