Brandon56001 Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 I got a tattoo about a year ago and ever since it healed it's been really shiny compared to my other one on my hand which looks matte into my skin. Just wondering if anyone had anything like this? Asked my artist saidbhed never seen it before (which was loads of help) to me my skin looks bunched up or like its coverd in a thin layer of glue any help would be appreciated cheers. Tried to upload a picture wouldn't let me though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SStu Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 That's all normal except for the "year ago" part. Usually the shininess goes away after a month or two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SStu Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 Do you have any previous scarring and/or tattoos to gauge if you've personally got historically similar reactions to skin trauma? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gringano Posted January 15, 2020 Share Posted January 15, 2020 I'm the opposite. I've just had a tattoo done on my ring finger as my wedding ring dosent fit anymore. I had it done on the 10th of Jan, it's now the 15th, it scabbed up as normal. But now the scabs come off, it looks really odd. I've had tattoos and none habe looked like this. Is it normal?

SStu Posted January 16, 2020 Share Posted January 16, 2020 Pretty normal for a 5 day old tattoo. That and hand skin both heals and wears ink differently than most skin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
