Former 90 Day Fiancé star Larissa Lima has proven herself to be very into her looks. The Brazilian beauty has spent thousands on cosmetic surgery to alter her physical appearance on both her face or her body. But her tattoos are some of her physical alterations that don't change the way she looks. Instead, many of her tattoos have great meaning behind them.
From breast implants to a nose job and a Brazilian butt lift, Larissa is open about her many cosmetic surgeries. Recently, she has gone as far as to get a new belly button and artificial abs. After her venture into abdominoplasty, the reality star was left with a scar that she desperately wanted to get covered up. This led to a new tattoo – a cluster of flowers spread across her lower belly and pelvic area. She called the art “tattoo camouflage” and recommended it to anyone who wants to become a model or hide their scars. Larissa has undergone multiple controversial plastic surgery procedures, but is on the road to achieving her “dream body.”
Larissa has many other tattoos beyond the cluster of flowers on her abdomen. After meeting a Brazilian tattoo artist, Larissa was gifted with a free tattoo of a rose on her hip. She told her Instagram followers, “Thank you my new friend for the gift you gave to me. I love my new tattoo.” If anyone is looking to get a new tattoo, she said her artist, Raphael Espinosa, is great and affordable. The tattoo is of a rose with a stem composed of the word “resilience” written in cursive. The 35-year-old wanted something to represent the past and the aforementioned word to speak for the future.
A black rose tattoo often signifies grief or the departure from someone you love, tattoo experts say. As Larissa was in the midst of divorcing her husband Colt Johnson, the quote applied greatly to her marriage. Colt, as a matter of fact, wasn’t too keen on Larissa’s many procedures, saying she had “a whole laundry list” of things she wanted to change about her body. “I feel like every week there’s a new surgery with her or something or another,” he said. “I don’t know if I have the last known look of Larissa Lima.” He even went on to note that Larissa seems like one person out the outside, but is a whole different woman on the inside.
But her ex’s opinions on her body don’t seem to be a factor in Larissa's decision to modify her physique. To represent the past, Larissa got an arm tattoo of the Frida Kahlo quote, “Donde no puedas amar, no te demores,” which means, “Where you can’t love, don’t stay too long.” The phrase was something the late artist would say to unhappy couples. Below that, Larissa has a series of Roman numerals, though it is unknown what the numbers symbolize. She also has a flower on the inside of her wrist. On her opposite arm is another cluster of words that are a little too mysterious to make out. Given the deep meaning behind many of her tattoos, however, it's certain that the words are also significant to Larissa.
