Enduring 21 surgeries and a 40-day hospital stay\u201420 of those in the ICU\u2014Juliana faced unbearable pain as she battled despair and infection threatening her body. \u201cThe doctor pulled my father aside and said he didn\u2019t know how I was still alive,\u201d she recalls, visibly moved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"996\" height=\"804\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/trendpop.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG-20241026-WA0005.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13960 lazyload\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/trendpop.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG-20241026-WA0005.jpg 996w, https:\/\/trendpop.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG-20241026-WA0005-300x242.jpg 300w, https:\/\/trendpop.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG-20241026-WA0005-768x620.jpg 768w, https:\/\/trendpop.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG-20241026-WA0005-600x484.jpg 600w, https:\/\/trendpop.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG-20241026-WA0005-20x16.jpg 20w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 996px) 100vw, 996px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The fire not only damaged her health but also shattered her self-esteem, leaving deep marks on her right arm. The tattoo that symbolised her personality was tragically replaced by scars and keloids, a constant reminder of the past she wanted to forget. \u201cYou know that tattoo you used to see? It was one of those fake ones, the stick-on kind\u2026 turns out, not everything is as it seems!\u201d Juliana reveals, sharing her inner struggle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>A Turning Point: Tattooing as Therapy<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After more than a year waiting under the shadow of the past, hope was renewed through Tattoo Zero Pain and tattoo artist Yumaru. \u201cTattoo Zero Pain introduced me to Yumaru. To me, he\u2019s a magician with special powers, yet undiscovered,\u201d Juliana says, with a glimmer of hope in her eyes. Yumaru, known for his extreme cover-ups, set out to turn Juliana\u2019s pain into art. \u201cI\u2019ve been tattooing for nine years, and my specialty is extreme cover-ups. For me, Juliana\u2019s cover-up is another person who feels uncomfortable in their own skin, and my role is to relieve that pain,\u201d the artist explains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"852\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/trendpop.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG-20241026-WA0009-1024x852.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13961 lazyload\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/trendpop.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG-20241026-WA0009-1024x852.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/trendpop.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG-20241026-WA0009-300x250.jpg 300w, https:\/\/trendpop.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG-20241026-WA0009-768x639.jpg 768w, https:\/\/trendpop.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG-20241026-WA0009-1536x1279.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/trendpop.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG-20241026-WA0009-1100x916.jpg 1100w, https:\/\/trendpop.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG-20241026-WA0009-600x500.jpg 600w, https:\/\/trendpop.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG-20241026-WA0009-20x17.jpg 20w, https:\/\/trendpop.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/IMG-20241026-WA0009.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>With an innovative process that includes regional anaesthesia, Juliana prepared to have the tattoo done without feeling pain. \u201cI never had the courage to tattoo my arm, as it was the most affected area. But with Tattoo Zero Pain, it really is zero pain!\u201d the DJ exclaims, now full of confidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Role of the Anaesthetist: Safety and Comfort as Priorities<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Vicente, the anaesthetist at Tattoo Zero Pain, highlights the importance of a hospital environment and specific anaesthetic techniques. \u201cWe work with three types of anaesthesia: General, sedation, and regional block. All our procedures are carried out in a hospital setting with the utmost comfort and safety for our clients.\u201d He emphasises that \u201canaesthesia aids in the tattoo\u2019s pigmentation; the skin receives the ink better,\u201d a vital step to ensure that Juliana\u2019s transformation not only heals her arm but also her soul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIf it weren\u2019t for Tattoo Zero Pain and Yumaru, I would never have been able to turn this page,\u201d Juliana Maddeira concludes, reaffirming that her new tattoo is not just a cover-up but a true rebirth. Now, when she looks in the mirror, she no longer sees the flames, but a work of art that represents her resilience. Juliana\u2019s story is a powerful testament to how the art of tattooing can be a tool for emotional healing amidst pain.<br><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Juliana&#8217;s case is still studied by doctors in Miami to this day In an emotional account that lays bare the visible and invisible scars of a survivor, Rio de Janeiro DJ Juliana Maddeira, 30, shares her remarkable journey of overcoming a devastating fire that nearly took her life in June 2022.
