Tattooing and body piercing as lifestyle indicator of risk behaviors in Brazilian adolescents.

Michele Dias da S Oliveira1, Marcos A Matos, Regina M B Martins, Sheila Araujo Teles.   

Abstract

Tattooing and body piercing may be visible markers to identify adolescents whose lifestyle may put them at a higher risk for morbidity and mortality. In 664 Brazilian adolescents we found 8.4% of body modifications. Further, sexual experience, illicit drug, alcohol consumption, and anti-HBc positivity were independently associated with them. These data suggest the potential risk of tattooing/body piercing in our youths.
