- CAN A TATTOO BLOWOUT...
October 26, 2017
I got a tattoo on my upper inner arm and because my tattoo artist was too heavy-handed, this blurry halo appeared. I went to the hospital nearby, the doctor simply glanced at my blowout and said the ink might be far too deep that the laser could not reach. I was confused. I know the ink might be injected deeply, even under the dermis, but I thought the laser could do better than that. So is it possible for me to get this blowout removed? I’d appreciate it if you could give me the answer.

Fatima Aziz-Ashraf, MD says:
Hi. Typically, blisters from tattoo removal form soon after the laser procedure is done. If the initial blisters healed completely, then it is unlikely that the current blisters are due to the treatment. You should definitely see your medical provider and get them checked out...
