Asked By:Kiara.zamora in Morton, Illinois

I am 5’7 I currently weigh 160 lbs I want to get liposuction to get a slimmer waist mainly get rid of the love handles and the lower belly. However I do have a pretty big tattoo on my lower abdomen section and I was wondering if this could get distorted or messed up by a scar. I also have a dragon tattoo that’s covering my back (but not the love handle section so much it’s mainly mid back although it’s the whole back. I wanted a slimmer stomach, and also get rid of the fat around my thighs
