polarbears Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 (edited) So I got a tattoo about 9 weeks ago, and a few areas scabbed up. I left the scabs alone and let them drop off on their own but now I am left with 2 pink scars (one of the scars is slightly raised). The tattoo was pretty overworked and now I am left wondering if this ifs fixable with a touch up or if I have to wait 12 months or should I just leave it alone all together? I am pretty disappointing as this tattoo is highly visible (on forearm) and I have never had any problems like this before with my other tattoos. Any advice/opinions are appreciated!

Dan Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 (edited) 9 weeks is not even healed,let it go 6 months and look at it again,as long as it's not infected,relax and let it heal. that doesn't look infected IMO. most artists offer free touch ups if needed. (be sure and tip them for supplies) Edited December 15, 2016 by Dan Devious6 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/7399-hi-there-would-love-some-advice-on-a-scarred-tattoo/#findComment-131711 Share on other sites More sharing options...

a_beukeveld Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 Leave it alone. It takes a while to settle in the skin.
