Yes, it’s normal for tattoos to go through a peeling or flaking stage during the healing process. After getting a tattoo, the skin around the tattooed area might peel, similar to how a sunburned area might peel as it heals. This is a natural part of the skin’s recovery process.
It’s important not to pick at or scratch the peeling skin, as this can interfere with the healing and affect the appearance of the tattoo. Instead, keep the tattoo clean and moisturized as per your tattoo artist’s instructions to promote proper healing. If you have any concerns or questions about the healing process, it’s always a good idea to consult with your tattoo artist.
