Although tatoo shops and artists will not admit it, or even perhaps know it, most tattoo inks are definitely carcinogenic and can cause cause cancer. This is not to say that everyone who gets a tattoo will get cancer necessarily, but not everyone who smokes does either. A problem with people realizing that tatoo inks can cause cancer is the fact that the cause ( the tattoo ) and the effect ( cancer ) can, and usually are, separated in time by a number of years. Sometimes twenty years or more. As a matter of fact, the causes of most cancers are separated by years from the time of the cause until the cancer actually appears. Tattoo inks can and do contain nice things like lead, cadmium, selenium, arsenic, and lots of other really nice chemicals. Some tattoo ink suppliers claim that their inks are "FDA Approved". The problem is that they are FDA approved for use in wildlife and fish, NOT HUMANS. There is no tattoo ink that is approved by the FDA for use in tattooing humans.
