tattoos keloid scarring
Will I develop a keloid scar on my ankle if I get a tattoo there?
I already have one on my chest and know I cant get tattoos on my upper body, but is there a possibility that I’ll develop a new keloid scar on my ankle?
There is a greater risk in anyone who has already shown the tendency to form keloid scars.

Body modification
Types of body modification
Explicit ornaments
Body piercing – Permanent placement of jewelry through an artificial fistula; sometimes further modified by stretching
Ear piercing – The most common type of body modification
Dermal anchoring Similar to transdermal implants, giving the appearance of a small bead on the skin
Pearling – Also known as genital beading
Neck ring- Multiple Neck rings are worn to stretch the neck.
Scrotal implants
Eyeball tattooing – Injection of a pigment into the cornea.
Extraocular implant (eyeball jewelry) – The implantation of jewelry in the outer layer of the eye.
Surface Piercing – A surface piercing is a piercing where the entrance and exit holes are pierced through the same flat area of skin.
Microdermal implants
Transdermal implant – implantation of an object below the dermis, but which exits the skin at one or more points
Surgical augmentation
In contrast to the explicit ornaments, the following procedures are primarily not meant to be exposed per se, but rather function to augment another part of the body, like the skin in a subdermal implant.
Breast implants – Insertion of silicone bags filled with silicone gel or saline solution into the breasts to increase their size, or to restore a more normal appearance after surgery
Silicone injection
Subdermal implant – implantation of an object that resides entirely below the dermis, including Horn implants
Removal or split
Hair cutting
Hair removal
Male circumcision – the partial or full removal of the foreskin, sometimes also the frenulum–conversely some men choose to take up foreskin restoration.
Female genital cutting – removal of the labia minora or the clitoral hood
Frenectomy
Genital bisection – splitting of both the underside and the top of the penis, including Genital inversion
Meatotomy – splitting of the underside of the glans penis
Headsplitting – splitting of both the underside and the top of the glans penis
Nipple removal
Nipple splitting
Nullification involves the voluntary removal of body parts. Body parts that are removed by those practicing body nullification are for example Fingers, Penis (penectomy), Testicles (castration), Clitoris, Labia or Nipples. Sometimes people who desire a nullification may be diagnosed with body integrity identity disorder or apotemnophilia.
Subincision – splitting of the underside of the penis, also called urethrotomy
Lingual frenectomy
Tongue splitting – bisection of the tongue similar to a snake’s
Trepanation, drilling a hole into the skull
Applying long-term force
Body modifications occurring as the end result of long term activities or practices
Corsetry or tightlacing – binding of the waist and shaping of the torso
Cranial binding – modification of the shape of infants’ heads, now extremely rare
Breast ironing – Pressing (sometimes with a heated object) the breasts of a pubescent female to prevent their growth.
Foot binding – compression of the feet of girls to modify them for aesthetic reasons
Anal stretching
Non-surgical elongation of organs by prolonged stretching using weights or spacing devices. Some cultural traditions prescribe for or encourage members of one sex (or both) to have one organ stretched till permanent re-dimensioning has occurred, such as:
The ‘giraffe-like’ stretched necks (sometimes also other organs) of women among the Burmese Kayan tribe, the result of wearing brass coils around them. This compresses the collarbone and upper ribs but is not medically dangerous. It is a myth that removing the rings will cause the neck to ‘flop’; Padaung women remove them regularly for cleaning etc.
Stretched lip piercings – achieved by inserting ever larger plates, such as those made of clay used by some Amazonian tribes.
Others
Branding – controlled burning or cauterizing of tissue to encourage intentional scarring
Ear shaping (which includes Ear cropping , Ear pointing or “elfing” )
Scarification – cutting or removal of dermis with the intent to encourage intentional scarring or keloiding
Tooth filing
Bodybuilding
Controversy
The head of a man with conspicuous tattoos and other body modifications
Some sources of controversy stem from the notion of attempting to artificially beautify the natural form of the body, often leading to charges of disfigurement and mutilation. Extreme forms of body modification are occasionally viewed as symptomatic of body dysmorphic disorder, other mental illnesses, or as an expression of unchecked vanity. Unlicensed surgery (i.e. the plastic surgery field) performed outside of a medical environment can often be life-threatening, and is illegal in most countries and states.
“Disfigurement” (a subjective term) and “mutilation” (regardless of any appreciation this always applies objectively whenever a bodily function is gravely diminished or lost, as with castration) are terms used by opponents of body modification to describe certain types of modifications, especially non-consensual ones. Those terms are used fairly uncontroversially to describe the victims of torture, who have endured damage to ears, eyes, feet, genitalia, hands, noses, teeth, and/or tongues, including amputation, burning, flagellation, piercing, skinning, and wheeling[citation needed]. “Genital mutilation” is also used somewhat more controversially to describe certain kinds of socially prescribed modifications to the genitals, such as circumcision, female circumcision, castration, and surgeries performed to conform the genitals of individuals with intersex conditions to those of typical males or females[citation needed].
Individuals known for extensive body modification
Rick Genest, has had his entire head and torso tattooed so as to appear like a human skeleton
Pete Burns, had extensive polyacrylamide injections into his lips, along with cheek implants, several nose re-shapings and many tattoos

The Scary Guy, his nose, eyebrows and ears are pierced and tattoos cover 85 percent of his body.
Lucky Diamond Rich, holds the Guinness world record as “the world’s most tattooed person” as of 2006
Hao Lulu, extensive cosmetic surgery in 2003 to alter her appearance, tagged “The Artificial Beauty”
Horace Ridler (“The Great Omi”), tattooed in a pattern of curved black stripes, often described as zebra-like
Pauly Unstoppable, the first person to get the white of their eye tattooed

About the Author
I am China Manufacturers writer, reports some information about dior jadore , antique barber.
I have a keloid on the back of my cartilage piercing, would getting a tattoo be a bad idea?
I have a keloid from a cartilage piercing, but other than that I have no other ones on my body, including my pierced ear lobes (and I have misc scars, none with keloids). Would it be a terribly bad idea to get a tattoo?
P.S. I just turned 17, where can I get it?
Keloiding is pretty rare. What you more than likely have is hypertrophic scarring. You can try to reduce it by doing hot chamomile teabag compresses, applying tea tree oil/emu oil, or using Crazy Chameleon soap.
You should be find if/when you get a tattoo. Depending on which state and which shops that are near you will dictate if you can even get a tattoo at your current age. Visit a shop or two and see what the tattoo age laws are where you live.
