Some people feel uncomfortable in their own bodies because of scars and birthmarks. Tattoos can help change this attitude by transforming these features with more deliberate forms of self-expression. If scars are associated with negative experiences, body art can become a symbol of renewal, allowing a person to reframe their past, accept it, and start anew.
