ScarArt: The Original Removable Tattoo for Tummy Scars
ScarArt was specifically designed to conceal Abdominoplasty (Tummy Tuck) and Horizontal Cesarean Section (C-Section) Scars. ScarArt was designed by a woman for a woman. The thought behind the product was simple. Women find many flaws that make them feel less beautiful and a scar only feeds a woman’s insecurities about any flaws she may have.
After having children, many women are left with a big scar – in some cases from hip to hip. In other cases, women seek help from a plastic surgeon to repair a c-section scar or to get rid of unwanted flab that exercise just can’t. Regardless of how the scar becomes a permanent fixture on a woman’s body, it is there and they want to conceal it in any way possible.
With all the popularity of tattoos and temporary tattoos, it only made sense to consider the possibility of concealing a scar with a beautiful design. So many products on the market today claim they will diminish the appearance of the scar; only leaving some degree of disappointment. The scar may be diminished, but is not gone. ScarArt does not offer a magic cream and it will not erase the scar… but it will conceal it. It will instantly allow women the confidence to run around in a tiny bikini or sexy lingerie or nothing at all. They love the beautiful designs they can choose from and the ability to change them as often as they like. The application and removal is easy.
ScarArt: A Personal Quest
Sixteen years ago, Angela Barrow had a c-section which resulted in a vertical scar. She then decided to disguise the scar with a tummy tuck…which changed the look of the scar to a horizontal scar from hip to hip. Disappointed, she continued her search for a vanishing treatment. She used scar revision, silicone gel sheets, liquid crèmes and concealing makeup. Nothing seemed to work. Reluctantly, she resigned herself to the idea that a permanent tattoo was the only solution.
Driving to work one day, Angela decided there must be a better way and began to visualize a decorative adhesive strip that could hide a scar and look like an accessory.
She began calling manufacturers trying to convince them that an adhesive strip long enough to go from hip to hip would be a worthwhile investment for c-section scars. Until ScarArt, body adhesive strips were small and created for arm bands and henna tattoos for the back. The idea of a longer, curved strip for tummy scars just hadn’t been thought of yet.
For over a year, Angela went from manufacturer to manufacturer with her idea. Finally, one manufacturer decided to take her up on the challenge. She invested in a prototype and sent it to the manufacturer. Soon, designs were underway and ScarArt strips were rolling off the production line.
Today, the ScarArt designs and colors are continuously expanding with comments from women who say they “feel sexy again for the first time in years.” Or, it’s like “self-confidence in an adhesive strip.” With comments like these…well, Angela just says…it doesn’t get any better than this!
