Any tattoo located near and around the hands can be tricky. For example, the palmar side (palm of the hand) has many more important functions and characteristics such as veins. The thin skin on top of your hand is necessary to handle movement of ligaments, and bone to enable this pivot joint to function. In addition, the high number of sensory nerve endings protect an area of your body where the artery is close to the surface of the skin.

Tattoo removal can be challenging around this area for a number of reasons. Primarily this area is very far from your heart near the terminal end of your appendage.
