Can someone tell me what causes scarring of a tattoo and also if there is anything i can do to care for the scarred tattoo and if there is anything that will minimize the raising.  This tattoo is a year old and still feels swollen at times and almost the whole tattoo itself is raised, not just certain parts.

I have the same problem with a six month old tattoo.  Sometimes certain areas are red and it still peels.  The tattoo artist that did all of my work, including the six month old tattoo, does not know what is wrong.
