Tattooing over a surgical scar? Timing decides whether you get the design you wanted or a warped version of it.
After a hip or knee replacement, the surface heals in ~2 weeks. Underneath, collagen, nerves, and blood flow keep rebuilding for 12-18 months. The scar isn't finished when it looks finished.
Ink too early and you risk heavier bleeding, spreading ink, and lines that blur as the scar settles. Sharp at 3 months, warped by month 12.
My rule: flat, pale, painless when you press it. Get your surgeon's clearance first, and choose an artist experienced with scar tissue. It's denser and takes ink differently.
The art is permanent. Make sure the canvas is ready.

Have you ever seen a more redneck sport than this? The race cars go around the track trying to be the first one to load onto the trailer being pulled by the truck. 🤣🤣🤣

THIS GUY LIVES UNDER SFO'S TAKEOFF PATH SO HE BUILT A CEILING PROJECTOR THAT TRACKS EVERY PLANE FLYING OVER HIS HOUSE IN REAL TIME
he uses a cheap $30 radio receiver to pick up the signals that planes broadcast while flying.
then projects them onto his ceiling in real time
when a jet flies over his house you hear it outside and at the exact same moment a plane glides across his ceiling labeled with the airline, aircraft type, and destination
pure black background so the projector's rectangle disappears and only the aircraft are visible
but he didn't stop at planes
it also draws the real sky behind them. sun, moon, bright stars, constellations, and live satellites including the ISS. all at their true positions for his exact location and time in real time
so he's lying in bed watching the actual night sky projected onto his ceiling with real planes crossing through it as they take off from SFO
there is a huge market for every man alive that runs outside to see the helicopter
vibe coded the whole thing himself with a cheap radio, a projector, and some clever software

The man. The myth. The legend. It was amazing to have Dr. Helfet come as our Martin Allgower - Hans Jorge Wyss visiting professor. He gave a great lecture about his 40 years of incredible experience treating acetabular fractures.
#UTSWOrtho had the pleasure of welcoming David L. Helfet, M.D. from @HSpecialSurgery to our campus for our Grand Rounds series.
Thank you Dr. Helfet for visiting us at #UTSWOrtho!
