Tattooing breaches the skin and can, therefore, cause a variety of complications. This book covers the full spectrum of issues clinical practitioners may encounter when treating affected patients. Introductory chapters include educational information on methods for tattooing, types of tattoos, tattoo inks, and tattoo ink toxicology. The focus is on the diagnosis and classification of tattoo complications. In this regard, a comprehensive atlas of acute and chronic complications serves as a valuable tool. Further chapters summarize available therapies, their rationale, and indication. This includes various medical and surgical treatments with a review of dermatome shaving. Lastly, tattoo removal by gold standard YAG lasers and the more recent pico-second lasers is discussed with the optimal therapeutic outcome in mind.

With about 10–20% of the adult population in Europe being tattooed, there is a strong demand for publications discussing the various issues related to tattooed skin and health. Until now, only a few scientific studies on tattooing have been published. This book discusses different aspects of the various medical risks associated with tattoos, such as allergic reactions from red tattoos, papulo-nodular reactions from black tattoos as well as technical and psycho-social complications, in addition to bacterial and viral infections. Further sections are dedicated to the composition of tattoo inks, and a case is made for the urgent introduction of national and international regulations. Distinguished authors, all specialists in their particular fields, have contributed to this publication which provides a comprehensive view of the health implications associated with tattooing. The book covers a broad range of topics that will be of interest to clinicians and nursing staff, toxicologists and regulators as well as laser surgeons who often face the challenge of having to remove tattoos, professional tattooists and producers of tattoo ink.

Tattoos are a popular form of body art. In Europa and the USA, the prevalence varies between 10-20%. Despite its popularity, complications of tattooing can occur. Little is known about its clinical aspects, pathomechanism and treatment modalities. This thesis includes an overview of all cutaneous tattoo complications, including permanent makeup. These complications can be categorized in infectious, inflammatory, neoplastic and miscellaneous reactions. Infections are mainly superficial and of bacterial origin. Inflammatory complications include allergic reactions and autoimmune skin diseases. Of all allergic reactions to tattoo pigments, red pigments are most frequently involved. Autoimmune skin disease that may be related to tattoos include psoriasis, lichen planus, sarcoidosis, vitiligo and lupus erythematosus. They may be locally triggered by the procedure of tattooing which is referred to as the Köbner phenomenon. Although tattoo ink is thought to contain potential carcinogenic substances, the association between tattoos and skin cancer is interpreted to be coincidental because of the low reported number of cases. Miscellaneous complications include misapplication, pigment changes, blow-outs, neurosensory reactions, scars and keloids. Of all chronic tattoo reactions, allergic red tattoo reactions are the most frequent. In this thesis, the aetiology, clinical aspects and treatment of these chronic skin reactions are studied. For these studies, analyses was performed of skin biopsies, in vitro sensitisation tests, 3D-scanner and the clinical presentation. In the majority of these reactions, the clinical presentation is a plaque-like elevation of the red tattooed skin. One of the studies report that the average time of onset of symptoms is 1 year after the tattoo is placed. Histopathologically, the most frequent inflammation pattern is a predominant histiocytic reaction with interface dermatitis.
