Letting go of those bad, traumatic events needs a strong-headed person to look forward to turning pain into strength.
What can you do? Well, for a starter… There is no perfect body. However, getting that scar covered with a new tattoo will boost your self-confidence!
Repurpose scars into cool artwork! That’s precisely what some people have done, of course, with the help of the tattoo artist Raquel Gauthier.
Viral Strange has collected 16 beautiful pieces that make iconic transformations.

What do you think about these transformations? Let us know your thoughts in the comments!
My stomach is a laberyth of scar. I have thought of this very thing. I thought I was nuts. Now I’m seriously thinking of getting the tats. Thanks I’m really not nuts. 🤣
A labyrinth might be a cool tattoo.
If it’s crazy, put me down for some too please.
Get it… just make sure your artist is good enough
I covered the scars on my arm and it was the best decision I’ve ever made! I’m more confident now than I have been in a very long time.
Well you’re still nuts, but you’re our kind of nuts, so that makes it ok
Same here. I had an emergency ectopic pregnancy back in 1983. Now I’m thinking the same thing. A tattoo to hide the scar
I didn’t know about oils and lotion back when I had my 1st baby. My God can this really be a thing…I have an old tattoo on my arm i will start with finding someone who can do a beautiful cover up for me on that. I hate my tummy for most of my life … I’m sure it would help me love myself again.
Love this what city n or state is this in
You can check in your town or anywhere they have a shop to find your artist. I would have a picture of the tattoo you want to make sure they can make it work. You can also Google tattoo artists in your area and check them out before you go see them. Their reputation,artwork and rating usually at your fingertips. Good luck
Be careful I searched locally got a well rated tattooist. Randomly pick a review of rose tattooist. Rated 5/5 but.. was a perfect rose, a first tattooist to be 2-3″. Was still beautiful but when customer took break during outline just blossom was front thigh, completed 12″. Was not dainty or able to hide. Family, boyfriend, and customer devastated. I met her at shop, left to rethink my 💡 idea.Seeing these research again. 5/5 rating and she was still miserable years later😖🤔☺️try it
Me too. I need one on my stomach and left hand.
I have had multiple neurosurgeries, with numerous scars on my head, neck, back and stomach, this would cover a lot of them! At one time I was thinking of putting an open zipper on my stomach and another on my back scars and have them partially open and a design of the bones showing, and dark spots for holes on my head!
Tats destroy a woman’s looks
Keep it up dear
OMG such beauty! Everyone of them turned out to be just amazing!
Would love to have Tatu on my Chest and upper stomach.
So beautiful rather then concentrating on the daily haunts of the negative, greeted by such beauty. I’m in. Any way of finding out where the tattoos were created? By whom? Congratulations 🎊
Hi, Ali. Below each picture is the source link directing you to the artist’s page. Thank you for reading us!
That’s amazing how much better a tattoo of all things covers these scars and hopefully help the people that have been dealing with scars whether it be emotionally troublesome or just embarrassing for them. All of them looked beautiful and hopefully the people wearing them will also feel as beautiful as they look!!
These are works of art that allow the wearer to smile as they are seen by others.
Wish I could tattoo over my scar. But unfortunately it has to get reopened every few years so the tattoo would get ruined
Wonderful tat artist to cover and beautify these various types, sizes and locations of scars. Especially the excellent disguising of the deep, wide and long scaring. I’m fair skinned with long thin scars on my knees and legs from knee replacements and a revision but my surgeon was precise, so they did all eventually heal flat and without any reddening. However, I’m a woman of a certain age and edema often causes my feet and legs to swell. This makes small blue veins and red capillaries form around my ankles. This is most unattractive and I’m going to see if any local tattoo artists have experience with and ideas for doing tats in this area of the body. Better run it by my doctor too.
For the first time in my life I think all tattoos are beautiful! You just might not know what’s under them!
Beautiful creations! What about the ones that are on the head (cranium-scull)?
I’m rather adverse to tattoos, particularly on women already blessed with beautiful skin. However, I’m all for ones like these that hide scarring or other unsightly ailments.
Covering up a terrible scar would be the only reason I would even consider a tattoo.
The tattoos are are nice enough, but it looks like the almost the same tat on each person. Not enough range for me. Great idea though…
I had three surgeries on my right breast to remove a tumor and reconstructive surgery. I had a big scar on my breast. 2010 I went to Lucky Draw Tattoo in Kennesaw and had a beautiful rose to cover it up
Its to bad That are no tattoos from reconstruction after brengt cancer
I never cared much for the tattoos of long ago, but they have become more creative and I love the idea if it doesn’t arm the thinner scarred skin. I wouldn’t mind getting a large scar on my leg covered if I could find a good artist or even a temporary transfer. These transformations are beautiful.
Love them and got one on my stomach and ribcage . from cancer of my kidney removel
I need to have a right hip, left knee and left breast done.
Great idea
Hello dit you have scars with breast cancer tattoos I’ve bin looking for some inspiration
Look up Willie’s Tropical Tattoo (Ormond Beach FL) artist Ron Gray. He has done beautiful 3-d looking nipples to full chest coverups. Look for “Artist Ron Gray/Daytona Beach”
Nice tattoos, but the last one isn’t even the same foot.
Analyzing — same toe shape and relative positions, same toenails, and a little of the scar still shows at the very top of the tat.
Beautiful way to erase trauma with something beautiful to look at.
I had an accident on my longboard…i have an scar on my face like Kratos lmao, i don’t know what should I do but seeing all this powerful girls I feel motivated…but at the same time I like my scar I don’t feel ashamed …love ppl
Fabulous way to transform something unattractive (if not downright ugly) into a thing of beauty.
If ever I have a scar to cover up, I would be happy to use this method.
Fantastic!
Not even the same leg.
I’d rather have the scars. I hate tattoos.
My neck and stomack has scars and I would like to get this kind of art. Who can I contact and how much would it cost to get this done to me?
I have serious large
large burns scars on my legs from knee down. My
incredibly capable artist said to me that I would be difficult to cover one graft as it’s behind my knee and the skin is loose and soft. Instead I opted to get a full back tattoo to celebrate the end of 3 years of burns treatment – an angel rising from flames.
This is what I need but ideas for masculine.
Just about any tat a sailor or prisoner might get.
Can anyone tell me how much worse the pain is tattooing over a scar??😳😬😬
Brilliant I’ve got a scar from a hip replacement so it’s give me ideas on how to cover mine up
The last one is two different feet!! I’m dying laughing! Those two feet look absolutely nothing alike, the size is different, bone structure is different, and skin tone is different. 2 of those things CANNOT CHANGE so they are obviously 2 different peoples feet!!
The toes are all alike in both photos. Any differences noted in the two photos are caused by the tat work, background, grooming, angle and lightening.
I have a huge scar on my leg, about 18″ X 5″ but can’t tattoo it as its a skin graft and the muscle is literally mm below the surface.
I have a feather tattooed on the scar of my appendix surgery………….scar is invisible but I’ve got pregnant twice after it………now its changed to an ostrich feather or some other big *ss bird……..
Thank you so much for opening the minds of the world, with this magnificent art. Restoring self esteem to those who are drifting in a sea of the (so called) beautiful people is the greatest gift. Their beauty was always there, however now they can really SHINE!! Kellie from Canada
I’ve got a big scar on my tummy off lazer removal gone wrong that I really want covering and this is exactly what I’ve thought to do it’s so nice to see how much it makes a difference
They are amazing but I know from experience that tattooing over scar tissue is so painful , but worth it.
Incredible transformation!! Great job. I have several scars from 9 surgeries just on my stomach. I don’t have a tattoo and I’m sure it would cost too much for me. They are beautiful tho!
I have scars halfway down my right arm from almost losing my arm in a car accident almost 6 years ago this would be perfect for me cause I’ve always been self conscious about my scars….I died 3 times from that accident and my fiancee tells me to wear them proudly cause not many people can die 3 times and live to tell their story he says it’s my choice to cover them if I want them covered
I think all of the tattoos were magnificent!
The before and after were amazing! You couldn’t tell that they had scares, because they are now beautiful ❤
These are all beautiful. It must be so freeing and confidence boosting to have the scars covered. I do wonder however how painful it might be. I know no tattoo is pain free but the skin in my old scars if very thin and sensitive.
They excellent and help people to not be so embarrassed. Especially on the beaches.
Great idea and way to hide a scare I love the idea
I’m interested in having something covered who can I talk toi
Such a great idea!
