Friends who have been tattooed know that the tattoo needles used in the tattooing process can only be used once. After use, even if the needles are not worn out, they must be discarded directly. Why?
1. Tattoo needles are disposable consumables
Tattoo needles are disposable consumables. The reason why they can only be used once is actually more for the safety of the guests. After all, tattooing is a traumatic art. In the process, the tattoo needle will pierce the skin of the client's body and inject the tattoo color into the dermis. Therefore, there will definitely be blood and tissue fluid left on the tattoo needle. And if it is reused, it is undoubtedly irresponsible for the health of the next guest. Tattoo needles are actually like disposable syringes in hospitals. They are all considered for safety, so they are thrown away when they are used up.
2.Disinfection cannot ensure the complete elimination of bacteria
Some people may also say that if you do not discard the tattoo needles and choose to disinfect them with alcohol, isn't it safe? At the same time, it can save costs. Although this is said, in fact, alcohol disinfection cannot completely eliminate bacteria, and there will still be residues. Therefore, a one-time abandonment can avoid this problem from the root cause. In fact, the disposable consumables in tattoos are not only the tattoo needles, but also the gloves worn by the tattoo artist, the tattoo pigments for the guests, etc., which are all discarded when they are used up.
Nowadays, the quality of tattoos is one aspect, and hygiene and safety are also a link that cannot be ignored. After all, no client is willing to make a good tattoo on the condition of personal health. Therefore, all regular tattoo shops have very strict controls on hygiene.
