What bad effects do tattoos have on the skin?

The harm of tattoos to the body

1. Tattooing is a behavior harmful to health. First of all, pricking or tattooing the human body with needle points will undoubtedly cause damage to human skin cells and nerve cells, and is an unhealthy behavior.

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

3. The personal disadvantage of tattoos is that if the tattoo is on a more obvious part, it may be more difficult to find a job, because some workplaces will not admit people with tattoos.

4. There are many kinds of pigments used for tattoos, many of which are chemical substances. When these chemicals enter the human body, they can cause dermatitis, allergies, local itching, pain, burning, numbness, etc. Some can also cause cell mutations, which is a precursor to cancer.
