Can a birthmark be covered up with a tatoo?

If I have a birthmark on my back and wanted it to be part of a tatoo, will it be made the same color as the tatoo. The birthmark is brown and the tatoo would be black.

If you would like to cover the birthmark, there are esthetists who specialize in concealing birthmarks and other skin pigmentation complaints. It is my understanding that an esthetist who does cosmetic tattooing can mix their ink pigments to a shade close to or matching your own skin color. Apparently this works well for some people. But, if you wish to just tattoo your chosen design over the birthmark, I suspect they will use the colors you ask them to .

Yes it probably could. But the real question should be is it healthy and is it able to be done without any long term effects. You should contact a dermatologist and ask them.

yes look online at tattoo covers, but this guy sage in new orleanes did a tiger i believe over a tiger over a birth mark, the first tiger was a chop job!
