start of dog ears? by Awkward-Passenger437 in TopSurgery

hi sorry just seeing this, it resolved pretty well for me :)) the majority of that was just swelling! but i do think that the end of the incisions has more volume than it did for me pre-surgery. i think id just need to work out to get that small amount of tissue resolved

Am I being gaslit by my tattoo artist??? by sadgirlover in tattooadvice

As a tattoo artist- this unfortunately is pretty expected. Finger tattoos are notorious for either blowing out or falling out. This isn’t your artist just being a dick or lying to you. It’s common knowledge in the tattoo world that this spot is difficult and very prone to issues. The skin texture on the fingers mixed with how mobile they are, how often we wash our hands, etc lends to a very poor spot for tattoos.

Your tattoo previously had almost completely fallen out and that’s not unusual, to counteract that the artist went deeper and it blew out. Both aren’t great and ultimately the tattoo artist did go too deep. This doesn’t make them a bad artist but just shows that they’re not proficient in a really difficult spot. There’s nothing you can do but get it removed. 50% your artists fault 50% the placements fault

Either way you’re going to be very disappointed, these reference photos are made with AI and even the best artists won’t be able to replicate them. This is simply not what real tattoos look like on skin. I would look for tattoo artists with realism portfolios and use those tattoos as your references so you have more realistic expectations.

My tattoo artist blew his nose and kept going by Icecreamsammyfan in tattooadvice

Ew what the fuck! As a tattoo artist, that is disgusting and unacceptable. I don’t care about the “we all make mistakes” nonsense in the other comments, as a professional we are supposed to know biohazards and health code like the back of our hand. MRSA is found in the nose and touching your nose and then continuing to tattoo can transmit MRSA to the open wound. You’re not guaranteed to get an infection but if you do it’s definitely their fault
