    I know from personal experience that tattooing over ACNE SCARS turns out fine but I wouldn't recommend getting tattooed over acne. Just wait til it''s finished before you get the tattoo so you don't end up with a crappy looking tattoo.

    There's a risk of spreading infection if you tattoo over acne, nomally it's something that you shouldn't do.

    Bit extreme getting a tattoo to cover a problem that will not be an issue in a few years!

    not so sure you should do it over acne....may be painful and also could cause an infection:(

    Go to your doctor and get him to perscribe stuff to clear it up, easy!

    most tattoo artists with a bit of cop on would just turn you down plain and simple.. why not get a tattoo where your not affected?
