Answer: Tattoos and Breast Implants Thank you for your question. As long as you seek out a highly regarded tattoo artist who practices great sterile technique, getting a tattoo on your breast(s) following a breast augmentation should not be an issue. The biggest risk with getting a tattoo would be for infection, so sterile technique, a clean facility and good post-tattoo care are of the utmost importance. I hope this helps!

Answer: Should be okay It would probably be okay however you should make sure to go to an experienced and reputable tattoo artist whom you can trust. You don't want to compromise your health with a possible infection! The tattoo needle is very short and will not penetrate your skin to the depth of where your implant is located.

Answer: No problem You will be fine. There is no reason why you cannot have a tattoo that covers your breast after breast augmentation. As long as everything is healed up well and you are going to a qualified tattoo artist, you should be fine. Good luck and enjoy your tattoo.
