In the case-control study, individual-level analysis resulted in a hazard of skin cancer that was 1.62 times higher among tattooed than non-tattooed participants (95% CI: 1.08–2.41). The twin-matched analysis of 14 twin pairs discordant for tattoo ink exposure and skin cancer shows HR = 1.33 (95% CI: 0.46–3.84). For both skin cancer and lymphoma, increased hazards were found for tattoos larger than the palm of a hand: HR = 2.37 (95% CI: 1.11–5.06) and HR = 2.73 (95% CI: 1.33–5.60), respectively.
