    Hi,

    I got my tattoo done 8/28/2008. The ink is now bleeding into other parts of my skin and there are several “pits” in the design. There was several deep scabs and even portion that was infected. I know that infection can sometimes occur, but with the bleeding of the ink, the cloudliness of how the tattoo is now I wanted to know if my skin was overworked. I went to another shop (other than where the work was done) and that artist told me that is was over worked and too deep. I have been treated for the infection, but now I am wondering if my tattoo was done incorrectly because of the bleeding of the ink, the cloudiness and the pits that devolped (which were not in the affected area). I have attached a link to my photobucket pictures. Thanks for any help.

    Definately sounds as if he went way too deep. Overworking the ink causes excess bleeding, so the more ink and bigger the scab during the healing stage. Sorry to hear you got a bad one! The infection could have come from x-contaminated ink, dirty needles? Could be a number of things. Hopefully it can be fixed up for you by a reputable artist. 🙂
