im booked in for a tattoo in a couple of days, and noticed i have a couple of tiny pimples on my back which will probably be in the area of the tattoo.

ill try everything i can to get rid of them but if they are still there by then will it be a problem?

    they might, but most probably wont. if you tattoo over a pimple you will break the skin and release any bacteria inside it, which could lead to infection and possibly scarring. i would either hold off until your skin clears up or get it in a different area.

    depends. it they are like heat ash or tiny tiny, probably. if you have a big nasty red pimple, probably not.

    do try to see that they dry out as much as possible before you go for your tat as they can be a problem,i only hope they are tiny as you say,you may be lucky and they might not be in the way,or be easy to work round. do mention them to your tattoo artist when you go for your appointment though.
    i was once doing a tat of a fairy on a guys shoulder and just in time discovered a pimple on the end of the fairy’s nose!! close one ,but it worked out fine. :o )
    good luck
