bruzzz Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 Hey guys, I'm booked in to get a tattoo tomorrow on my front/inner thigh just above my knee. in this area I'm sporting a fresh new bruise. Did it playing sport 2 days ago. With the placement only a portion of the new tat will be on the bruise. Other then discomfort is there any issue in terms of affecting the end result of the tattoo? Cheers for anyones input. Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/6716-tattooing-on-an-existing-bruise/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisvK Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 I'm not 100% sure but I think the ink goes deeper then the bruise so healing wise there shouldnt be any problems. Just expect a shit ton of pain. Would be interesting to see if anyone has any experience with this hogg 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/6716-tattooing-on-an-existing-bruise/#findComment-121896 Share on other sites More sharing options...
bruzzz Posted December 3, 2015 Author Share Posted December 3, 2015 Ended up getting the tattoo off the bruise. Not because of the bruise but because the tattoo sat better more central on the leg.

LizBee Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 I know in this case the matter is moot, but as a medical person I would not get tattooed over a bruise, because the skin is disrupted in this location and I don't think the ink would "take" properly (or there is a risk it would not) and there would also be increased risk of infection, possibly.

ashleigh Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Hi I am about to get a tattoo on my upper right leg in 5 days and yesterday i notice a sort of random medium bruise kind of in the area of where i am getting tattooed, its not painful but it has me a bit concerned and embarrassed. My question is would it be a issue for the tattoo artist regarding it. i am trying real hard to get it to heal and vanish before my tattoo as i really want to get this tattoo and i booked this 2 weeks ago if anyone has Instagram message me with advice @ashleighx32 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/6716-tattooing-on-an-existing-bruise/#findComment-147167 Share on other sites More sharing options...
SStu Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Shouldn't be a problem. Embarrassed?! Tell the tattooist you bumped into a table. It doesn't have to be a sex bruise, after all. 😄 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/6716-tattooing-on-an-existing-bruise/#findComment-147174 Share on other sites More sharing options...

SStu Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 Ultimately up to the tattooist. Zerpersande 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/6716-tattooing-on-an-existing-bruise/#findComment-147182 Share on other sites More sharing options...
