Don't do that. If your skin is very sensitive, you can get skin cancer later in your life !!!

well my boyfriend is the same way, but he has to half sleeve tattoos. i can't really tell you what will help if you get a tattoo. Perhaps when you go to get the tattoo, let the artist know so he can apply that goowy stuff to it when it feels iritated and maybe take like a vicodin before you go, im sure you can find someone with some. But with my boyfriend, if i hit his arm slightly his tattoo will welt, so it wont change anything. But you also have to be careful because some people are allergic to tattoo ink, it's rare but its out there.

There are some artists that can work with your skin tenderness. If your skin is really thin and prone to draw blood a LOT, then you don't want to get a tattoo.
Everyones skin is different, and they are willing to work with your skin quality. Just go to a shop and ask them what they can do.

I have very sensitive skin also. I have a tattoo on my lower abdomen (small one). I think it could have healed nicer, but otherwise no problems! But to be sure, just call a tattoo artist and get a professional opinion!

I think the healing aspect of getting a tattoo would be the biggest obstacle, as you hadn't mentioned being a bleeder, in which case you could probably get better healing instructions, medicines, etc.

i have the same problem and i have five tattoos in various places you could get a small tattoo at first and see how well it heals up before getting something larger in a more obvious place happy tattoo hunting though there's loads and there addictive

ask your doctor but your skin would most likely turn very red and possibly swell. how big of a tattoo are you looking to get? you may have to do it in sessions. good luck!

It may be possible. The tattoo artist may suggest you don't. I personally suggest you don't, but it is your body. If you really want one and you can get one then you decide. Just a warning they hurt like hell.

well it sounds like you don't have that many scars probably get more and your skin will toughen up and if you get a tattoo your skin will toughen up too!
