Will tattoos make my Keratosis Pilaris worse?

If you’re thinking of concealing your KP with a new arm sleeve tattoo, you certainly can. There isn’t any evidence that tattoos make keratosis pilaris worse—or better. It might camouflage things, but it shouldn’t really affect skin texture. The tattoo ink sits on top of the hair follicle but doesn’t penetrate it. And when the bumps fade with age, you’ll still have a tattoo souvenir.
