3. Scarring: Scarring can occur with certain body modifications, such as tattoos and piercings. These scars can restrict the movement of the skin and adhesions can form at the site of the modification. 4. Nerve Damage: If the body modification involves piercing too deeply into the skin or piercing overly sensitive areas of the skin, there is a risk of nerve damage. 5. Incomplete Removal: The removal of body modifications like tattoos and piercings can be difficult and can leave behind visible ink or scarring. In some cases, it might also be impossible to completely remove the body modification.
