Newswise — A recent Pew Research Center survey found nearly a third of American adults have a tattoo and almost a quarter have more than one. 

Whether it’s in a small or large area, there are risks to consider before getting a tattoo and important steps to take to care for your skin afterwards. 

Adam Friedman, a professor and the chair of dermatology at The George Washington University School of Medicine and Health Sciences can discuss risks to consider before making a final decision about getting a tattoo and what can happen if you don’t properly take care of the tattooed area.
