Often people do not think about how weight gain or weight loss will affect the tattoo in future. They do not think about what will happen to the tattoo over a long-term period, they are more concerned about having the tattoo quickly. Among few common questions regarding tattoo is "What will happen to the tattoo if I gain or lose weight, will it stretch or shrivel?" The other question which arises is "What will happen to the tattoo structure and color if I gain or lose weight, will the color fade?" Answers to these specific questions are obviously yes; the tattoo can elongate in size, shrivel and fade in color; all these depend on where the tattoo is placed and how much of an alteration your body has undergone.

The only areas where the tattoos can be prevented from stretching, shrinking, or discoloration are the skin surfaces under lower back, legs, arms, foot, ankle, wrist, shoulder blade, behind the ears .

The ink eventually penetrates the skin, which further makes the skin look distorted.
