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.

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
