On General Hospital, Isaiah (Sawandi Wilson) had started to believe he was part of something permanent. You could see it in how careful he was with Portia (Brook Kerr), how much he had at stake emotionally. Then everything flipped. Curtis (Donnell Turner) turned out to be the father of her baby, not him. The shift was instant, and Isaiah was left to absorb it. Around the same time, Sawandi Wilson gave fans a look at another kind of transformation, one that happens quietly behind the camera.The General Hospital transformation viewers never saw View this post on Instagram Instagram PostWilson shared a behind-the-scenes process with a video on Instagram, writing, “Movie magic is real. Huge thank you to the @ghmakeupcrew for the flawless tattoo cover. Special love to @beautyby_karol @priscilluxe & @jacklynquackenbush for making it seamless every time. #BTS #GeneralHospital #SawandiWilson #isaiahgannon #gh.”In the video, Wilson sat calmly as the makeup team worked across his back, carefully layering product over his tattoo in preparation for Isaiah and Portia’s locker room scenes. The camera captured its methodical precision as other images of Wilson in the studio flashed. What started as a visible mark slowly disappeared, replaced by skin that appeared untouched.By the end, there’s no trace left. Isaiah exists exactly as viewers expect him to. No distractions. No reminders of the actor behind him. It’s the kind of invisible work that holds the illusion together seamlessly.

Many were looking forward to seeing where Isaiah and Portia’s relationship will go. One viewer seemed put off because Steve Burton’s (Jason) tattoos aren’t covered up. However, Burton's tattoos have been addressed on the story, and are considered Jason's tattoos.What happens between Portia and Isiah next is anyone’s guess, but the fans are glued to the screen waiting to find out.
