scarring

3 messages · last activity 6/2/2007

I'm not quite sure if my tattoo is healing properly. Ive had it for almost 2 weeks and it's still raised. Im not quite sure if its just a reaction from the ink color (which is red) because the purple one seemed to have healed perfectly. I've been putting A&D and lotion and it seem to not progress healing. There are bumps on it, its raised and i think i might have scarred in some ares. I would love to hear your advice. This is my first tattoo and i want it to look its best. Thank you
red is notorious for allergys as far as bumps sounds like u may be cloging pores wash real well with hot water let it breathe for 10 to 15 minutes after washing and apply a very thin coat of ointment.raising could be lots of factors diet change meds allergys artist went too deep ect ect good luck give it time and see what happens
Thanks... hopefully it gets better.
