How Do I Get Rid Of Acne On And Around My Tattoo?

I have a tattoo in September of 2008, so it's been several months since then. However, I recently discovered the formation of acne on and around my tattoo. The tattoo is on my left shoulder and is in a place where I usually get acne. How do I get rid of this acne problem without damaging the tattoo itself, and why this happens?

I had a similar problem w / my tattoo. I started to rub the tattoo with alcohol per day (with a cotton ball.) Immediately after rubbing down the tattoo, I use Cetaphil cream (small amount) so that the tattoo does not dry out. This got rid of the problem for me. Good luck!

Wash the face, neck and scalp, once or twice a day. Wash gently rubbing his hand in a circular motion and rinse with lukewarm water.
Buy over-the-counter acne medications. You may need to try several before finding the best for your skin. They come in a wide range of prices, and most expensive is not always better.
Use caution with all the products in the skin. Apply the only oil free makeup, lotions and sunscreen. Reading "nonacnegenic" or "non-comedogenic" are the best.
Keep hair products on my face. Cover the face with a towel during the application of hair gel, hairspray and mousse. During a shower, wash my face at last to remove the shampoo and conditioner that can run on her face.
Keep the sweat, germs and dirt from your face. Pull long hair with the heat and avoid the use of hats and sunglasses.
See a dermatologist if the acne is influencing self-esteem. A doctor may prescribe medication stronger rights or take other preventive measures.
