When this happens, you may want to consider getting a touch-up so that your tattoo looks as sharp as it did when it was first done.įinally, touch-ups might also be necessary if you have an older tattoo that was done using outdated techniques or materials. Even if you take good care of your skin and avoid exposing your tattoo to too much sunlight, it will still eventually fade. This is especially true for tattoos done in lighter colors such as white or yellow.
Another common reason for needing a touch-up is that tattoos simply fade over time.
