I have some milky color scar tissue on my latest tat, I have never had this before. The same artist has done 2 others with no problems, this time it was more painful and I thought he was going way deep. I have taken good care and using topical antibiotic cream and healing moisturizer the same as always but it hasn't cleared up in 7 weeks. Any thoughts on this. Thanks Oldskool in Oklahoma

was it the whole tat or just parts or one color? i had some roses done awhile back and some of the magenta developed small milky white bumps here and there, kinda like a pimple. so i popped them, a small bit of scar tissue or something like that came out and healed up like nothing was there. good luck with it and you might also ask your artist about it.
