Tattoo artists transforming scars into works of art

Our body, with its marks and imperfections, tells our story. However, it is also true that very often there are scars on the body, which, being permanent, constantly remind us of bad stories: accidents, major operations and, even worse, violence suffered by someone else.

For this I tattoo artists turning scars into works of artoften free, they are especially notable artists with a capital letter because they make their art a vehicle to give new life to the skin of those suffering from their stories and their scars. For example, a Brazilian tattoo artist named Flavia Carvalho, promised to get tattoos for free women who wanted to hide the scars from mastectomy, violence and accidents with a tattoo.

However, there are many tattoo artists who have devoted themselves to similar activities, creating beautiful designs to hide scars, especially those left after a mastectomy. In fact, a mastectomy is a very invasive operation that many women find it difficult to agree with because they feel deprived of their femininity... Thanks to these tattoo artists, they can not only cover the scars, but also beautify a part of the body, giving it a new sensuality.

In the same way, women who have experienced violence or even tried to commit suicide have the opportunity, thanks to these artists, to “hide” with something much more beautiful the traces left on their bodies by these experiences. And with that, turn the page to start living better and calmer again.

It is true that a tattoo does not heal scars, internal or external, but it can certainly give new strength to women who have already been put to the test of life.
