Tell your child the risks involved with body modification.


If you have found out that your teenage son or daughter is considering some kind of body modification then you may well be about to put your foot down. Arguing with your child about body modification is only going to increase stress levels and lead to resentment and maybe even deceit. They may very well just go out and get say an organic plug somewhere on their body where you cannot see it. So it is important to sit them down and talk to them about your genuine concerns about their health and safety, if they really are determined to go then help them to look for a reputable body modification parlor that gives a professional and clean service.
There are some real risks to health if a body modification is done poorly, piercings can become infected and if a tattooist uses a dirty needle all kinds of problems can arise ranging in severity from blood poisoning to something much more severe such has hepatitis and AIDS.
The most common health problem that comes about as the result of a body modification is some kind of allergic reaction. Some people can be allergic to certain metals used with implants as well as some of the dyes that tattooists use when drawing the tattoo. The allergic reactions can range in severity from swelling of the skin to rashes and to some more problematic things as breathing problems and hospitalization.
Excessive bleeding is sometimes a common problem associated with piercings, especially in parts of the body that is not used to having a piercing put in place.
Nevertheless these are the sort of concerns you have to raise with your child and make them fully understand that body modification is not 100% safe, there will always be a risk to health no matter how slight.

Guard your wellbeing when acquiring a body modification.


If you’re contemplating getting a body piercing or tattoo then you need to take the repercussions to your health and well-being into consideration. Ensure that you do some investigation first, that examination should be completed personally, go to a tattoo studio or a piercing parlor and converse with the proprietor. Inquire about the needles that they utilize, such as are they throwaway or are they used again? You may want to look elsewhere if they do reuse needles, as though they’re sterilized you have to ask the question of is it worth risking infection, as on balance it’s your body and your wellbeing.
As soon as you are content that this specific piercer or tattoo artist sticks to the approved hygienic procedures then you must enquire about previous examples of their work, as any respectable tattoo artist or piercer will have a collection of their past works. If they don’t have any examples or they are not keen about showing you then be worried, this may be a sign that they have undertook some less than impressive work in the past.
An additional item to think about is, do they supply a leaflet describing the after care directives? Do not except just being advised vocally about what you should do after you have departed their premises. If you have been furnished with a list of instructions to adhere to then you are likely to go along the advice instead of failing to recollect what the piercer or artist has explained to you before you departed.
Ask for evidence that they have completed work for preceding contented patrons by requesting to view some testimonials, and if they have a register of names and addresses for these referee’s.
To close, make certain that any needles are unwrapped where you can see them, as ones that have already been unwrapped ought to be deemed infected.
