  • Laser Hair & Tattoo Removal
    Laser Hair & Tattoo Removal Lasers may be used to remove unwanted hair or tattoos. Depending on their intended use, lasers vary in wavelength and energy penetration. Laser hair removal is achieved by causing a thermal injury to hair follicles, while laser tattoo removal is achieved by using a laser to breakdown tattoo ink particles in the skin. Infection Risks Laser treatment may cause superficial burns or injury to skin at the site of the laser treatment or in epidermis surrounding the treatment site. Microorganisms can enter the body at the procedure site and cause an infection. Potential sources of these microorganisms include: • Contaminated or improperly reprocessed equipment • The client’s own bacteria from different parts of the body • Unclean hands touching the treated area. The result may be localized skin or tissue infections or more invasive infections. Additional risks include blistering of skin and localized allergic reactions. Additional Considerations Equipment: • All lasers used for hair or tattoo removal are to have an active Canadian medical device license. • All needles or lancets used to expose ingrown hairs are to be maintained as sterile until point of use and discarded in an appropriate biohazard (sharps) container after use. • All reusable equipment/instruments/items are to be reprocessed after use. • Items that are not able to be reprocessed are to be discarded after use Client Safety: • Operators are to provide clients with information on contraindications for laser treatment, including relevant medical and/or skin conditions, medications and other skin treatments. • Operators are to provide clients with relevant pre-treatment instructions. • Operators are not to perform laser treatment on a client’s body if nearby skin (within 15 cm (6 inches)) has a rash or is inflamed or infected; if this cannot be done, operators are to defer service until the area has healed.

  • Perception of Tattoos in Contemporary Japanese Society
    LUND UNIVERSITY • CENTRE FOR EAST AND SOUTH-EAST ASIAN STUDIES Perception of Tattoos in Contemporary Japanese Society Author: Monika Rusiňáková Supervisor: Paul O’Shea Master’s Programme in Asian Studies Spring semester 2019 Abstract This thesis analyses five in-depth interviews on Japanese tattoo culture conducted by the author and ten short interviews with tattooed Japanese people published by Japanese online tattoo magazine. The study focuses on inclusion and exclusion of tattooed Japanese people in contemporary Japanese society, relying on labeling theory and collectivism. The findings suggest that significant tattoo stigmatization prevails in contemporary Japanese society. Tattoos are often percieved as a bad label that is required to be concealed with cloths or make-up. Nonetheless, the label was accepted by the majority of the interviewees who did not want to advocate for their rights of individualistic self-expression. Having said that, there were some participants who refused to submit to the society’s demand for good adjustment. I argue that the willingness to good adjustment is corelated with the values of collectivism. Keywords: Tattoos, Japanese society, Labelling theory, Collectivism 1 TABLE OF CONTENTS 1.

  • Copyright Ownership and the Need for Implied Licenses in the Realm of Tattoos Kyle Alan Ulscht
    Seton Hall University eRepository @ Seton Hall Law School Student Scholarship Seton Hall Law 5-1-2014 Copyright Ownership and the Need for Implied Licenses in the Realm of Tattoos Kyle Alan Ulscht Follow this and additional works at: https://scholarship.shu.edu/student_scholarship Recommended Citation Ulscht, Kyle Alan, "Copyright Ownership and the Need for Implied Licenses in the Realm of Tattoos" (2014). Law School Student Scholarship. 596. https://scholarship.shu.edu/student_scholarship/596 Copyright Ownership and the Need for Implied Licenses in the Realm of Tattoos Kyle Alan Ulscht This article argues that there is a need for an implied license to be issued when an individual is tattooed. In spite of a rich history spanning millennia, the legal community has not come up with an adequate system of determining copyright ownership in affixed tattoos. Complicating this lack of certainty in the field of copyright rights in tattoos is the general unwillingness of courts to invoke the de minimus use exception in cases of copyright violation. This unwillingness coupled with the ubiquitous nature of technology and social media could lead virtually every tattooed person to be held to be an infringer and prevent them from a variety of activities ranging from appearing in advertisements, or movies, to more common activities such as posting photos on Facebook, without a complicated trial or trail of paperwork and accounting. Fortunately courts, relying on theories of equity, have invented the concept of implied licenses for instances when a party commissions a work but does not meet the more formal requirements to own the copyright rights of that work.

  • “Toughen Up”: Tattoo Experience and Secretory Immunoglobulin A
    AMERICAN JOURNAL OF HUMAN BIOLOGY 00:00–00 (2016) Original Research Article Tattooing to “Toughen Up”: Tattoo Experience and Secretory Immunoglobulin A CHRISTOPHER D. LYNN,* JOHNNA T. DOMINGUEZ, AND JASON A. DECARO Department of Anthropology, University of Alabama, Tuscaloosa, Alabama 35487 Objectives: A costly signaling model suggests tattooing inoculates the immune system to heightened vigilance against stressors associated with soft tissue damage. We sought to investigate this “inoculation hypothesis” of tattooing as a costly honest signal of fitness. We hypothesized that the immune system habituates to the tattooing stressor in repeatedly tattooed individuals and that immune response to the stress of the tattooing process would correlate with lifetime tattoo experience. Methods: Participants were 24 women and 5 men (aged 18–47). We measured immune function using secretory immunoglobulin A (SIgA) and cortisol (sCORT) in saliva collected before and after tattoo sessions. We measured tattoo experience as a sum of number of tattoos, lifetime hours tattooed, years since first tattoo, percent of body covered, and number of tattoo sessions. We predicted an inverse relationship between SIgA and sCORT and less SIgA immunosup- pression among those with more tattoo experience. We used hierarchical multiple regression to test for a main effect of tattoo experience on post-tattoo SIgA, controlling for pretest SIgA, tattoo session duration, body mass, and the interac- tion between tattoo experience and test session duration. Results: The regression model was significant (P 5 0.006) with a large effect size (r2 5 0.711) and significant and pos- itive main (P 5 0.03) and interaction effects (P 5 0.014).

While tattooing has been acknowledged as art, it has its negative connotations. In Japan, tattooed people tend to be stigmatized and frequently conceal their tattoos. Public places such as pools, baths, or saunas prohibit tattooed people on their premises.1 In contrast to these negative views about tattooing, however, its growing popularity has been noticeable. With the popularity of body arts, some Japanese are accepting tattoos as fashionable or as an art form.2 What accounts for these polarized attitudes? It is often said that Japanese cultural values emphasize collectivistic views such as conformity and uniformity. A number of scholars in the field of Japanese studies argue that Japanese views of individuality stress interdependency of the self.3 1 Stephen Mansfield, “The Indelible Art of the Tattoo,” Japan Quarterly 1/1 (1999): 30-41. 2 Stephen Mansfield, “Tattoos, body piercing gaining popularity,” Daily Yomiuri, October 5, 1994, p. 3; and Yasuo Saito, “Karada de shucho?

    H-Japan PANEL: Irezumi vs. Tattoos: Perceptions of Japanese Tattooing from Past to Present Discussion published by Janet Goodwin on Wednesday, November 27, 2019 Irezumi vs. Tattoos: Perceptions of Japanese Tattooing from Past to Present Date: Tuesday, December 3, 2019 Time: 7:00 - 9:00 p.m. (doors open at 6:30 p.m.) Temple University, Japan Campus, 1F Parliament Venue: (access map here) Yoshimi Yamamoto, Professor of Comparative Cultures at Tsuru University in Yamanashi Panelists: Megumu Kamata, Tattooer Moderator: Taro Nettleton, Assistant Professor of Art History, Temple University Japan Campus Admission: Free. Open to the public. Language: English [email protected] Registration: * Registration is encouraged, but not required. * 事前申込みなしでも参加できますので、直接会場へお越しください。 Overview: Japan has a long and varied history with tattoos. Irezumi, or traditional Japanese tattoos, translates literally to ‘inserting ink.’ Historically applied without the aid of electricity through the use of a bamboo stick with needles fastened to it, its imagery is drawn from ukiyo-e woodblock prints, particularly from Utagawa Kuniyoshi’s 108 Heroes of the Water Margin, and often features motifs of real and mythological power animals such as dragons, koi, shishi lions, and tigers. In Japan, tattoos were heavily stigmatized after criminalization in the Meiji period, and strong association with organized crime, popularized through yakuza genre films in the 1970s, still lingers today, despite being admired then and now by tattoo collectors and tattooists around the world. Within Japan and around the world, however, tattoos have many different meanings, from ritual tattoos and its reclamation among many indigenous communities, to the growing global popularity of tattoos worn as casual adornment.

  • Fashioning Tattooed Bodies: an Exploration of Japan's Tattoo Stigma
    Fashioning Tattooed Bodies: An Exploration of Japan’s Tattoo Stigma By John Skutlin, Chinese University of Hong Kong Abstract: This article uses a cultural anthropological approach to examine tattooing stigma in contemporary Japan, particularly in terms of how the stigma has developed and how tattooed individuals engage in various legitimation maneuvers to cope with it. Tattooing has a long history in Japan, and tattoo culture saw a major efflorescence in the Edo period (1603-1868). However, unlike many Western countries, where most tattoos are widely accepted as expressions of individual style and aesthetics, a confluence of historical and cultural factors have resulted in a general antipathy to the practice in Japan, particularly due to its association with yakuza organized crime groups. As increasing numbers of young people go under the needle for what they see as artistic “fashion tattoos,” reconciliatory strategies must be deployed in order to maintain social cohesion and assure adherence to group norms even while violating them. Through historical accounts and ethnographic data, this paper thus elucidates the complicated nature of stigma in Japan and the specific ways in which individuals fashion both their bodies and their strategies to legitimize themselves, showing how efforts to conceal tattoos – even when only partially successful – can be an effective means of reconciling themselves with the general society around them.
