Should diabetic be getting tattoos?

Well, that is an interesting question. I have tattoos, but I do not have diabetes. Honestly, I do not think that having diabetes has anything to do with getting tattoos. There could be problems if the needle has been used several times, but that is something that I haven't heard of in a long time, more than decade.

I have diabetes.

But you need to talk to your gp be4 having any.

Hello there dominik,

First of all it is great that you are keeping the level of insulin under the control and that you are responsible when it comes to that. Second of all I don’t see any reason why you wouldn’t have a tattoo but I would recommend seeing a doctor because of this. You are more prone to the infection so it is very important to decide where you want that tattoo and how big it is going to be and few other things.

Also you will need to inform the person who is going to do your tattoo about your condition and maybe you will need some additional measures. I hope that you will be satisfied with your tattoo and that everything will go smooth.
