The dermatological manifestations of contact dermatitis with PPD are of variable severity, similarly, cases of psoriasis on tattoo sites have been reported [3], noting finally, the relative gravity in patients with a deficit glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) [4]. Oral or topical antibiotics can be used for secondary infection and a case of allergic dermatitis with staphylococcal super-infection has been reported.18 Benefits from the use of prophylactic anti-staphyloccocal antibiotic has not shown any clear evidence.19 Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation tends to occur in greater frequency among darker skin groups and can cause a psychological, emotional distress and is associated with a negative impact on the quality of life.20 The treatment of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation should then begin early on to help in its resolution.
