Answer: How soon after Tummy Tuck can you get tattoo over scar? Thank you for sharing your question and photograph and I am sorry that your current results have not been what you anticipated. Because scars will continue to mature for up to a year after your procedure I would wait at least that long before a cover up so as not to compromise either the incision or the tattoo. Hope this helps.

Answer: Getting a tattoo after a tummy tuck Thank you for the question! Even though your tummy tuck scar will gradually fade over time, you may still get a tattoo if you so desire. It's perfectly safe. You just have to wait until the healing process is completed and your swelling is completely gone. That may take 6 to 12 months from the day of surgery.
