My artist and I are preparing to get in some marathon sessions before my surgery date just in case we have to take a significant amount of time off.

I am not sure of the healing being the main concern, instead I would consider postponing the tatooing becasue your skin will change so drastically. If you have Plastic surgery to remove the extra skin after the weight loss than you made end up with strange tatoo graphis the butterfly could revert back to a worm

Thats all I know!
