I'm considering getting a tattoo. However, a couple of years ago I got my ear pierced and didn't take care of it properly. It got infected and then developed a small keloid. I'm concerned about getting a tattoo if I'm predisposed to keloids. The thing is, that was my first and only keloid, and I'm a white male (and I've read keloids with this demo is rare) and I've had acne on my back leaving plenty of scars which have never developed keloids. Am I really predisposed to developing keloids and am I risking a keloid by getting a tattoo?
