Inside: Beautiful Tummy Tuck Tattoo Designs and Ideas.
Tummy tucks are a wonderful way to reduce the embarrassing aftermath of significant weight loss, or to enhance the abdomen that maybe once looked quite different. While the tummy tuck can help remove excess skin and fat, the result can leave scar tissue and stretch marks.
To cover up the residual effects of a tummy tuck, many turn to a tattoo artist to take something they feel is unsightly and make it something they are proud to show off.
As with any large scar or area of the body that has experienced stretching, insecurity can be a common feeling. But with the right tattoo design, all evidence of the scar can be gone.
These beautiful tummy tuck tattoos are just some of the stunning ways to hide that scar and show off that beautiful new tummy artwork.
Can a Tattoo Cover a Tummy Tuck Scar?
A tummy tuck scar can definitely be covered by a tattoo. To reduce associated pain and ensure a long-lasting design you will want to wait about a year for the scaring to completely heal. You will also want to find a tattoo artist that specializes in scar tattoos as the process can be slightly different from other non-scar tattoos.

Does Tummy Tuck Tattoo Hurt?
The stomach and abdomen are generally more sensitive areas to get a tattoo. The scar tissue left over from a tummy tuck can also create complexities for the artist and potential increased pain.
