Always wait until the skin is fully healed and follow medical advice before tattooing. When to tattoo a scar Most artists recommend waiting until the scar is flat, pale, and stable.

Achieving lifelike results in skin requires mastery of light, shadow, and color blending. Realistic tattoos often look three-dimensional, with subjects appearing to emerge from the skin surface.

Forearm tattoos benefit from a natural canvas that follows the arm's long shape. Designs can wrap around the arm or sit on the inner or outer surface, giving flexibility in how the tattoo is displayed.
