Simply put, yes it can. There are multiple reasons as to why it will happen though.

First one is due to the artist going to deeply into the skin. This will cause the needle to puncture layers that otherwise do not need to be colored...

Secondly you may simply be allergic to the ink.

Third off you may not have kept the area clean enough while healing.

Will a tattoo cover scar tissue?

Yes, tattoos can cover scar tissue, but the results vary. Scars typically require 6 to 12 months to heal and settle, depending on your individual skin type and care. Gel-prone individuals should avoid scars. Scarred skin may absorb ink unevenly, requiring experienced artists and multiple sessions. Consult with a professional to assess the suitability and design options.

Can the color of an existing tattoo be changed to a different color?

Most any tattoo can be touched up or recolored by a professional tattooist... Tho keep in mind this may be a lil' more painful than the original piece, as now we are going over scar tissue. All a tattoo is a colored and shaped scar resulting from the application of the ink. Remember always see the professional tattooist, and dont be surprised when he suggests that you need a re-outlining.....90% of those who come to me for re-coloring really need an outline first for the color to stand out against........TatuBaron
