Will my tattoo affect my breast augmentation surgery?

Asked By:addie400 in Miami, FL

I am getting a big tattoo cover up on my back Saturday, & have my surgery Tuesday. I was reading about the risk of infection, but usually my tattoos heal pretty well. I wanted to know if it’s possible to have some sort of negative reaction during surgery caused by the ink. Anything to do with anesthesia terrorizes me. I’m very scared to have any complications due to this.
