Can a Tattoo cover scars or other tattoos?

Depending on the condition of the scar, it is possible for a tattoo to cover-up a scar. It mainly depends on the age and flatness of the scar. If the surface is extremely raised, then that skin may not accept ink. As far as covering up existing tattoos, that can definitely be done. Typically a new piece is two to three times the size of the original to achieve a successful cover up.
