Marykinz Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 (edited) Hi there,I don’t have any tattoos yet but I would love to get one, only thing holding me back is my doctor they say it could scar, I already have a scar on my leg from the skin cells diying and won’t grow back, I’ve been to different tattoo artists which have given me different opinions, some say it will just take longer to heal, and some say it will scar if it’s on my legs but upper body will be okay (the scars are normaly around the shin area) reason they said it would scar is because my blood sugars aren’t level and are all over the place, could I please get some advice as I’m diying for a tattoo! And would love to know if anyone has experience tattooing diabetics with bad blood sugar or if you have diabetes yourself and have been tattooed (I have type 1 diabetes) thanks mary Edited April 24, 2019 by Marykinz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
el twe Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 Well I don't have any experience with this, but it sounds like you should probably listen to your doctor and artist(s). And if you're really concerned about it, maybe you could get a small, discreet tattoo as a sort of 'test.' JAC1961 and oboogie 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAC1961 Posted April 25, 2019 Share Posted April 25, 2019 I did a little Googling and there seems to be quite a bit of info about it. Here's just one. Please be careful, no tattoo is worth risking your health. michi0709 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
