Only if there are gaps in the outline, or any areas that did not shade as required. Even great artists cannot predict the tattoos lines once healed. Once completely healed check it yourself and any decent tattoo artist should be happy to touch up a tattoo that has any imperfections. Just be reasonable but happy with your tattoo.

Will your tattoo darken up after peeling?
On the contrary! Tattoos tend lose their glossy shine (become duller) and lighten up a bit after peeling and once it is healed. The change in color is not drastic. After time, your tattoo will gradually lighten even more, and if there is quite a bit of thick coloring, it will space, meaning small gaps in the color will be visible. Touch ups every few years are very normal for maintaining a tattoo. You won't be charged as much for touch ups as you did for your initial tattoo, and it is useful to restore the color and keep your tattoo looking brand new. Good luck!

If you get a shape-up do you need to keep getting them after the first one?
It really depends on how well you care for your tattoo.

The best answer for this is to ask yourself this simple question: Are you satisfied with the way the tattoo looks? Yes: No fix-up needed No: Talk to the artist and see what he/she suggests on improvment or touch up...
