#1 The most significant tattoo I have ever had. This Incredible Woman’s Scar Cover-Up. I’m at a loss for words to express this process
We got in touch with Jesse Whitley, the proprietor of Stagecoach Tattoo Co. in Lubbock, Texas, to find out more about these delicate cover-ups. Jesse told Bored Panda that while scar tissue may be tattooed directly over birthmarks, “the most skilled artists can work with or around birthmarks”Tattooing over a scar really causes the scar tissue to break down.
Whitley did point out that the tattoo artist’s capacity to create a high-quality tattoo in and around the afflicted region will be influenced by how severe the scar is.”You have to realize that tattooing over a scar is different from tattooing on normal, undamaged skin because it is a distinct type of skin and retains ink differently.”

Health professionals claim that scarred skin is tougher and more uneven than normal skin, which makes it less able to absorb ink.
Additionally, the ink may move, making the tattoo appear smeared or indistinct. So it’s crucial that consumers pick an accomplished artist.
Everybody has a unique body. This implies that everyone has a distinct threshold for pain. Scar tissue, however, typically responds to the needle more quickly. Getting a cover-up tattoo may be very unpleasant for some people, particularly those whose scars have resulted in nerve damage or compression.

Designer and creative director Deepali Masand is one of the persons whose tattoos you may see on this list. We got in touch with her, and Deepali consented to tell us her tale; she was frank about how she came up with this lovely kitty design.
When she was 13 and was involved in an automobile accident, everything began. Deepali had a significant burn-like scar on her left arm after becoming wedged between the road and the automobile.

Everyone recommended cosmetic surgery in 2003, when the scar was still recent, she recalled to Bored Panda. “But as time went on, I grew really at ease with that scar. I wasn’t really bothered anymore”
“Then jump ahead to 2018, the year I lost my first furry child. That [also] left me scarred. For the Inktober theme “Tranquil,”I created this drawing as a tribute to his death. However, this year, as I approached my 30th birthday, I made the decision to get a tattoo. I had been planning to do so for a very long time”

The designer claimed to have had a revelation. “I was awakened by it in the wee hours. I had to use a lovely memory to hide my scar. I immediately contacted my incredibly brilliant and close friend Arnab.”
He is also a [fantastic] tattoo and graffiti artist, and when he heard about this idea, he was ecstatic.
#19 I’ve finally taken action with my scar
This was Deepali’s first machine tattoo, she said, adding,”I had a handful of needle pokes on me as Tests””Since a buddy was going to tattoo me, the procedure went rather well. Because he loves animals as much as I do, I had the highest confidence in him, and he merely gave me the same”
”Arnab modified my illustration by drawing inspiration from it. We had concepts along the way, including a Van Gogh-like moon in green and blue inks and a little scar that could be seen through the texture of the moon’s craters. It was intended to pay tribute to both my pet and the scar’s memory”
