Twp. of Washington NJ, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration is warning consumers, tattoo artists, and retailers about the risk of serious infections associated with tattoo inks contaminated by harmful bacteria, including Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Tattoo inks that are contaminated can cause infections and lead to severe health issues when injected into the skin during a tattooing procedure, as there is an increased risk of infection whenever the skin barrier is breached.
