Can I get a tattoo over a mole or birthmark?
Tattooing over moles or birthmarks isn’t recommended because it can obscure these areas, making it harder to detect changes that could signal skin health issues.
It’s best to avoid tattooing directly over them, and if you’re considering a tattoo nearby, consult with a dermatologist first. Work with your tattoo artist to design around moles or birthmarks or choose an alternate placement that doesn’t interfere with these critical areas.
