I forgot to tell you guys that I had my 1st NSV on my surgery day! Along time ago I was watching Dr. 90210 and Dr. Li cut out this small tattoo from this lady while she was under for her boob job and a light bulb went off in my head!

B/C along long long long time ago I decided it would be cool to get a tatoo. Well, it's never a good idea to let a 16 year old punk guy with a needle tatoo you but we all know I've grown up since then! So, anyways, long story short - I had the "blob" cut out of my leg while I was getting my band, and I didn't feel a thing! I saved hundreds of dollars on laser treatment AND I won't be embarrassed to wear short shorts when I lose my weight b/c I won't have the "blob" and what's one more tiny scar anyways? Noone will even notice when I look all hot in a bathing suit next summer b/c I'll no longer have the weight or the stupid tattoo!!!

YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY for you

I would have never thought of that. Perfect!

o0o there's an idea!! I too, got a really stupid one when I was 16, on my boob (I haven't a clue why lol). I've got a few others that look great, but that one, has stretched and discoloured and looks horrible. I didn't know they could be removed surgically, but I'll ask the PS about it when I go for my consult. I've always been embarassed to wear lowcut tops because of it.

Congrats, Laura!

Smart move! Well done, and let's hope this is just the first of many many NSVs!

When i was 16 in lived in a group home, and all the other kids were tattooing themselves, but I flat out refused. There just was no way I was going to let some dumb kid give me a prison tattoo.... Needless to say, I was ostrasized from that group too... (or maybe I meant needleness... )
