Question 1

can somebody with hemophilia get a tattoo?

Not a good idea: The tattoo machine places the ink and a fine needle into you dermis. There is disruption of the dermis and epidermis and bleeding occurs. The condition will allow for more bleeding than expected. I would avoid any unnecessary  trauma to your body

THe potential for bleeding is there and this is an elective procedure that you may regret

Question 3

could people with von willebrand disease or hemophilia get tattoos?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Like everything else involving body art, it's at your own risk. Your physician might be your best guide here. If you take a factor before other procedures, this would perhaps be a good time. Start with something small. I like well-chosen body art and if this is something you've really wanted for some time, i hope you're able to get it.
