What harm does tattooing do to the body

Now when talking about tattoos, everyone must be familiar with it, because many people have tattoos now, especially in summer, you will find many people with tattoos around you. Nowadays, many people believe that tattoos are a kind of culture and a kind of beauty. Everything has two sides. When tattoos become popular, they will also cause some harm to our bodies. Now let’s talk about the harm that tattoos can cause to the body.

1. Damage to the skin

The skin is the first line of defense of the human body. It can resist damage from external mechanical, physical, and chemical stimuli and the invasion of pathogenic microorganisms, and plays an important role in human health. However, tattoos destroy this line of defense, reducing the body's ability to resist various stimuli, and are especially prone to bacterial infections.

2. It poses a great threat to skin health

Tattooing is actually a destructive act to the dermis of our skin. When we get a tattoo, after the pigment is implanted into our dermis, it is very likely to cause skin lesions or even cancer, which will pose a great safety hazard to our skin health.

3. Pigments

There are many kinds of pigments used for tattoos, many of which are chemical substances. These chemicals can cause dermatitis and allergies when they enter the human body, resulting in local itching, pain, burning sensation, numbness, etc. Some can even cause cell mutations, which is a prelude to cancer.

4. Hazards of infectious diseases

We all know that tattoos are done by injecting pigments into our skin through needles. However, due to the irregularities in the tattoo industry, many tattoo places now do not handle the disinfection of tattoo needles in a standardized manner, which may cause the infection and spread of viruses in this process, posing a great threat to our skin health.

5. It has a great impact when you want to remove the tattoo

Since tattoos are achieved by injecting pigments into the dermis of our skin, it is very difficult to remove the tattoo after it has been done. Even if we remove the tattoo, it will still cause great damage to our skin and make our skin surface look very ugly.
