The same is true for patients who have already had <a href=\"https:\/\/www.skincancer.org\/skin-cancer-information\/melanoma\/\">melanoma<\/a> or another form of skin cancer \u2014 the inks used in tattoos have not been shown to increase their risk of recurrence. People who have had skin cancer are always at higher risk of developing future skin cancers, but tattoos do not increase that risk.<\/p>\n<p>However, it\u2019s never a good idea to have a tattoo placed too close to (or over) a mole. Changes occurring in a mole \u2014 to its symmetry, border, color, size, shape or texture \u2014 are potentially key warning signs that the lesion may be evolving into a melanoma or another type of skin cancer. It\u2019s important that all moles are left completely visible, or you could risk delaying detection. It is also not advisable to tattoo over a melanoma scar. It\u2019s important to be able to look at the scar in case of recurrence. Tattooing will cover the area and potentially allow a recurrence to be missed.<\/p>\n<p>When skin cancer is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.skincancer.org\/early-detection\/\">discovered and treated early<\/a>, it is usually curable. More advanced skin cancers become harder to treat and may become disfiguring or even deadly if allowed to spread. This is why anything that delays detection can be extremely dangerous. If you get a tattoo, make sure it is placed far from any mole or other spot that is changing or that concerns you. This is especially important for people who have multiple moles or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.skincancer.org\/skin-cancer-information\/atypical-moles\">atypical mole syndrome<\/a>, since they are at increased risk of developing melanoma.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you have tattoos, especially large ones that cover a lot of area, such as a sleeve, it is crucial that you check those areas once a month. Use a mirror or partner if it\u2019s in an area you can\u2019t see. If you notice anything new, changing or unusual within the tattoo, or anything that concerns you, such as itching, bleeding or a color change, it is important to see a dermatologist. It could be skin cancer developing under the ink.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Read a related story, featuring an interview with our president, Deborah S.
