0 Comments

 
The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) has prepared a review to be published next month. This article—for teenagers, young adults, parents, and health care providers—will note how to safely alter one’s body appearance with tattoos, piercings, and other modifications while considering all of the consequences.

If you are interested, you can read more from the AAP at the following link. You can also read an article in the New York Times by a physician with direct experience with some of the complications encountered after such “body modifications” at this link.
