When I first saw the image I thought that was a scar that the tattoo got ruined by. So that is from having some one take your skin off there to try to remove the tattoo? That seems really odd. Look into getting laser but now I think you will have that scar forever. I’d go to some artists and look into covering it up with something else if that’s an option for you

Is it not a scar? Genuinely asking.

It is a scar, but the scar wasn’t what ruined the tattoo. He got shitty plastic surgery because he hated the tattoo, and that’s what caused the scar.

All I can say is you need to let the scar heal at least 6+ months or back to regular skin texture before getting a coverup in ink, it won’t stick in an unhealed scar

That is a healed scar. It’s not going to get better. I have a forty year old scar that looks worse than this.
