How Will Arm Lipo Affect my Tattoos?

User Avatar

I have extensive tattoo'ing all the way around my left arm from my wrist to armpit. Will upper arm lipo affect this tattoo? Since I'm stuck with my tattoos pretty permanently I'd hate to mangle them with lipo although I really want to get my arms done pretty badly. It would be nice to fit into fitted short sleeve shirts again, or EVER for that matter.
