Are there risks in getting a tattoo?

June 23, 2006

 

Answer:

 Yes. Here are some:

 » Dirty tattoo needles can pass infections from one person to another person. These can be serious like hepatitis and HIV. Make sure that the needles are clean and germ-free.

» You might be allergic to something used in your tattoo. This is rare, but it could cause serious problems.

» Lumps or bumps may form around the tattoo color.

» You could have swelling or burning in the tattoo if you have magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). However, this happens rarely and does not last very long.

» You may not like your tattoo even if it was done well. Not liking the tattoo is the most common reason people give for having one removed.

» If you decide you want to get rid of a tattoo, it usually takes many treatments and costs a lot of money.

» Scars may form when getting or removing a tattoo.
