What are the health risks of tattooing?
Tattooing, which is traditional and sacred in many tribal cultures of the world, and which for a time was banned for a time and for a long time after that frowned upon by western societies as a sign of decadent behavior that is fit only for criminals and convicts, is now widely accepted worldwide among the different age groups. No doubt influenced by tattoo-sporting celebrities, a growing number of teens and young adults are tattooing their bodies as a form of art and self-expression. The old, meanwhile, have also resorted to tattooing to “enhance” their body appearance, as in tattoos to replace eyebrows, and to define the eyes and lips for example.
