    A reputable artist will not tattoo over acne. In a lot of states, it is actually written in the law books that no one can tattoo over acne or any other skin irregularities. Best to let it clear up,

    Acne is a inflammatory infection in the pores of your skin. Yes, it will be more painful tattooing on top of it--and the ink usually will not take in the area. This makes for a strange looking tattoo. Best bet is to clear up the acne and keep it under control before placing a tattoo there. You can try any of the over the counter acne body washes for a few weeks with daily exfoliation. If this does not work set up a appointment with a expert-- a Dermatologist.The other option is selecting another area on your body where the skin is clear. Good luck to you in your decision making, hope this information was helpful.

    Right now my skin is perfectly clear, for the first time in 3 years. It's been about 9 weeks and all my acne is gone. It is such a great feeling to wake up with clear skin.

    If it's just tiny bumps, it shouldn't be a huge problem. You probably won't even notice it (especially since it's on your chest and you can't see what he's doing), but even the acne is too big, he'll either tell you or he'll find a way to go around it if the design you picked is capable of doing so.
