Work with a reputable tattoo artist to find a design that will cover your scar. Some scars, especially ones that are deep or have tissue changes such as ridges, are not concealed with tattoos. A design can still minimize the appearance of a scar by diverting the eye, or the scar shape can be incorporated.

That's something you're going to have to discuss with a tattoo artist. Some scars cannot be covered by tattoos. Others can be extremely painful to get covered. It's not about the design, but about if the skin will hold ink and be able to be covered.
