Tattoo

Tattooing is a permanent body modification achieved by injecting ink beneath the epidermis using needles. This practice, both aesthetic and symbolic, triggers an immediate skin reaction, with a healing phase that can last several weeks. Proper care is essential to maintain the tattoo and prevent complications such as infections or allergic reactions.
