improve skin quality
in general it would refer to updating something, but in this case it's all about improving. Quality or to be more exact the tone of the skin.
Note from asker:
I'm pretty sure it's used in a negative sense i.e. damaging the skin somehow. |
Discussion
Probably... ...I could've spoiled the skin a little.
1. The line isn't drawn clearly so he needs to make improvements manually, that's the common usage of фаршануть.
2. Or maybe it's a jargon word specific to tattooing meaning damaging the skin to the point that it looks like minced meat.
