Thank you! Working with animals I have been stressing over my new tattoo being infected, I know I’ll probably need a touch up since I had bubbling that led to the scabs, and that won’t be an issue my artist already knows about that. I just didn’t want to completely ruin my tattoo with an infection.

Thank you for responding! I feel the same way, I have been so worried about my scabs. I never scabbed on any of my other ones either. I also believe mine was cause by over moisturizing bc I had bubbling happen then when I let it dry out it started to scab. I’m only 7 days post tat so hopefully I will get the same results, I can definitely deal with a touch up rather than an infection

I recently completed my half sleeve about 7 days ago. My artist cleaned and wrapped my arm and told me to remove the wrap and clean it, I realized the soap I was using contained fragrance (I know that’s bad) and I had a reaction to aquaphor, so I swapped to Tattoo Goo, and it’s been amazing! My only concern is that I have some scabs that seem to be a yellowish/clear color. No oozing, pain, redness, fever, or anything like that but the scabs look pretty bad. Could this be infected or just a way it’s healing? I have 2 tattoos but this is the largest one I have gotten and it took 4 hours. I contacted my artist and she said she will do a touch up once it’s healed if needed. I work in a Veterinary hospital so I’m always concerned for infection even though I clean and moisturize my whole tattoo 3 times a day. (I did have a scab fall off that is pictured my 1 year old rubbed his head on it and it fell off with no bleeding or oozing)

Hello I’m curious as to how this turned out? My forearm tattoo is doing the same exact thing and I’m terrified of an infection
