Will Lower Body Lift Remove Some of my Tattoo?

February 13, 2010
Asked By:Annisa in Michigan

I have a full back tattoo that goes down to the crack of my butt and I was wondering if I would loose some of my tattoo if I had a Lower body lift. I am pretty thin, I just want the lift to tighten up skin and reduce cellulite. I don't have severe loose skin like someone who lost 100 + pounds.
