Detailed answer

Psoriasis is a chronic autoimmune skin condition that causes an overgrowth and inflammation of skin cells. Getting a tattoo may trigger or worsen psoriasis symptoms in the tattooed area. The trauma caused by the tattoo needle can lead to Koebner phenomenon, where new psoriasis plaques develop on the tattooed skin. Additionally, the chemicals in tattoo ink may also cause allergic reactions or irritate the skin, further aggravating psoriasis. It is best to consult with a dermatologist before considering getting a tattoo if you have psoriasis to discuss potential risks and a personalized approach to minimize potential complications.
