Durability-wise? Pain-wise? Covering or showing-wise? Where did you inked your first one?

I asked about getting one to cover up my open heart surgery scar.

"You know that's really going to hurt, right?"

"More or less than open heart surgery?"

". . . Good point."

Turned out, the top 1/2 of the scar is too bumpy to take ink well, the bottom 1/2 too squishy. So still just a scar. :( or is that :) ?

I have a surgery scar that runs from my sternum to my groin. I considered getting a zipper tattoo on it. A good tattoo has a lot to do with the background shading so it could be done by tattooing the skin right up to the scar rather than on it.
