I’m wondering how long it has to be until a tattoo can have some touch up work done (not cover up work). It was done two weeks ago and has feeling and some scabbing in areas. Just wondering if it needs to be completely healed before that can happen. Thanks

2 weeks is the minimum, so you should be cool to go do it now my man.

I would suggest you wait until the skin has returned to normal. That is, done healing. If you still have scabbing, I wouldnt do any work on you. The time frame is normally three to four weeks for a fully healed tattoo. BUT, this is only a rough idea. Some tattoos take longer to heal, and some take less time.
Be patient. The tattoo will be there forever, dont rush to get color added before your skin can handle it!;)

As stated above; I’d suggest that your wait untill it’s fully healed.
When you run your hand over your tattoo and you can’t feel a difference inbetween that and the rest of the skin… you’re good.
