It's just healing. You can get it touched up if you need to.

😞 so sorry for your loss, 

Thanks, friend. 

Said I wouldn't do my other knee. But I did. 😂  Also, I got a tattoo of my sweet Brontë, who had to be put down last week. She was 8.

It is absolutely fine. No worries.

Just keep it clean and let it heal.

Right leg has stars and dots as filler. Left doesn't. 

My elbows weren't the worst, but it still hurt. Hahaha. Prepare yourself. 😂

1. Let it heal.
2. Get a new artist.

You won't get a refund. I hope you find a tattoo artist who can fix it for you.

It looks fine to me, but we are NOT doctors as Hogrider said. So yeah. We're going to tell you to see a doctor. 😉

It just looks irritated. But as @Hogrider said, if you are worried, see a doctor.

Hello, I am having this issue now and came across your helpful post. If you see this, can you comment as to if you’re also cracked and bled. I starts antibiotics and antibiotic ointment per my doctor and the artist is aware. A very reputable one that has done several of my tattoos but this is the first time this has ever happened and it’s front and center on my chest so I’m horrified it will be a blob.  

It'll be fine. I had an infected tattoo once, and it was nothing to do with the artist. After antibiotics, I got it touched up a few months later, and it is fine.

I like that. Add anything you want to it. You don't have to have a theme.

This thread is four years old.

Touched-up knee and a few new little space fillers.

Going this week to get my knee touched up, some small tattoos to fill in my legs, and some stars and dots. I haven't been to see my friend/tattoo artist Josh in over a year, so I'm looking forward to it!

I use Kiehl's lotion on mine. No issues. 

You are overthinking it.

I don't know how well that will hold up, especially if you don't find an artist that has serious skills. I would try to make that less ... busy? There's just too much happening. Way too much.

Quit worrying about it. It's not healed. It can be touched up. End of.

Looks fine. Just keep it clean.

I wear that shirt all the time. I enjoy the confusion in people's face since I am covered in tattoos.

It's fine. It was made by a human hand. Don't get tattoos if you don't like imperfect things.

Then why is there a marketplace section?

You can post your stuff there if you want (after you've participated on a few other threads on the forum), but no one will buy it. There are no artists here anymore.

Not many artists here anymore.

I've been told my the artists when getting a new tattoo or a touch up, and it usually takes two weeks to heal.

 

So like they say experiences may vary

That's a no. They don't heal in two weeks. 😂
