<human>: I'm thinking about getting a tattoo, but I'm worried about the risks. What are the risks of getting a tattoo?
<bot>: The most common risk associated with getting a tattoo is infection. Tattoos can be infected by bacteria or viruses that enter through the skin during the tattooing process. This could result in an infection and require medical attention. Additionally, tattoos may cause allergic reactions to certain dyes or pigments used in the tattoo. Other risks include scarring, poor healing, and even permanent damage to the skin.
