摘要

摘要:有关曾参与帮派活动和被监禁的有色人种纹身去除过程的数据很有限。这项单中心回顾性研究针对2016年1月至2018年12月期间在Homeboy Industries的Ya'Stuvo纹身去除诊所接受治疗的患者。研究回顾了 2,118 个纹身的数据，并对 502 名患者的代表性样本进行了分析。对 118 个纹身（5.57%）的治疗导致了至少一种并发症（色素沉着不足或色素沉着过度、瘢痕疙瘩或瘢痕）。出现洗纹身并发症（7.3%）的患者不太可能再次完成洗纹身过程。能量较高的纹身、由专业艺术家刺上的纹身、彩色纹身以及治疗次数较多的客户身上的纹身出现的并发症较多。这项研究强调了有色人种纹身去除过程中的并发症和最佳做法，这一过程对这一弱势群体重新融入社会和脱离帮派至关重要。

Tattoo Removal in People of Color Who Were Formerly Incarcerated or Were Gang Members: Complications and Best Practices

Abstract:There are limited data about the tattoo removal process in formerly gang-involved and incarcerated people of color. This single center retrospective study was conducted on patients treated at Homeboy Industries' Ya'Stuvo Tattoo Removal Clinic between January 2016–December 2018. It reviewed data on 2,118 tattoos, and a representative sample of 502 patients was used to conduct our analysis. Treatment on 118 of the tattoos (5.57%) resulted in at least one complication (hypo-or hyper-pigmentation, keloids, or scarring). Patients who experienced tattoo removal complications (7.3%) were less likely to return to complete the removal process. More complications were experienced with higher fluences of energy, on tattoos placed by professional artists, on colored tattoos, and tattoos on clients who had a greater number of treatments. The study highlights complications and best practices in tattoo removal in people of color, a process critical to the reintegration and gang disengagement of this vulnerable population.
