LONG SCAR DOWN STOMACH

2 messages · last activity 2/5/2008

I HAD A SERIOUS SURGERY 13 YEARS AGO AND A SCAR 3 INCHES ABOVE NAVEL AROUND NAVEL AND DOWN ANOTHER 4 INCHES ITS NOT PINK OR RAISED BUT NOTICEABLE. GOING THROUGH MID LIFE DEPRESSION AND FEEL LIKE IT'S TIME TO DO SOMETHING WITH IT ALWAYS COVERING IT UP AND MAYBE IF I GET A TATTOO I'LL FEEL MORE COMFORTABLE AND START WORKING OUT WANTING TO SHOW IT OFF. GOING TO GO GET INFORMATION THIS WEEK HAS ANYONE HAD ONE THAT BIG OF ONE DONE ( DAINTY FLOWERS ON VINE IS WHAT I AM THINKING)
talk to your local reputable custom artist. He'll be able to tell you what you can do with it. Large scars can be covered depending on the texture of the scar, how soft it is, how well healed it is, etc. The idea isn't to really cover the entire scar, but to visually reduce it.
