ABSTRACT
Tattooing and other forms of body art have recently become popular fashion accessories worldwide. Temporary henna tattooing has also become increasingly popular and is readily available. Henna, which is called Mehndi in Indian, is a plant that is commonly used as a temporary dyeing agent. Para-phenylenediamine (PPD) is added to the Henna tattooing process in most cases to hasten the drying process and enhance darkness. Since PPD is widely recognized as a sensitizer, the risk of allergic contact dermatitis from henna tattoo mixtures is increasing. We report a case of contact dermatitis from a henna tattoo mixture, which developed 2 weeks after henna tattooing.
