Episode 12: Tattoo Talk — Art, Aftercare, and Dermatologist Red Flags

Thinking about getting a tattoo—or already have one? This episode dives into the dermatology behind the ink. Dr. Dustin Portela and PA Austin Lee break down what happens to your skin during tattooing, how placement affects longevity, and why some tattoos age better than others. They share best practices for healing, how to avoid allergic reactions and infections, and the truth about sun exposure, red ink, and yes—tattoo regret. You'll hear personal stories, including Dr. Portela's real vs. temporary tattoo experiments, patient tattoo horror stories, and how your immune system plays a surprising role in tattoo fading. Plus, the duo explores new treatments for tattoo removal, the dangers of henna, and why you should never tattoo over a mole.
