Just wondering does anyone have any idea why after having tattoos done a couple of yrs ago they would raise up now, it looks like they are 3-d, or is there anything i can take or do to fix them...cheers in advance

It's just scar tissue that causes this. It's fairly common if the artist goes in a little too deep. I had one done 7 years ago that still occasionally raises up, but that's a special case and my own fault because the tattoo is a complete mess that I got done cheap by a scratcher. As long as it isn't constatnly itchy and irriatating, there isn't anything to worry about as it usually sorts itself out after a while, but aloe vera speeds up the process of healing scar tissue.
