I have multiple tattoos and no how to care for them but was wondering is it safe to inject into a tattoo, as i want to get one where i inject. Any advise is greatly appreciated.

I'd still avoid it since a) injections can result in localised fat lumps which would distort the tattoo and b) I'd have thought that the injections might mess with the injected colour pigments
