We previously found a positive association between tattoo experience and relatively elevated secretory immunoglobulin A (from pre-posttest) after receiving a tattoo (Lynn et al. 2016). Immunosuppression is often a result of acute stress, so we hypothesized the elevation was due to stressor habituation, as with exercise or an inoculation. We began retesting this among Polynesian tattooists, whose practices are among the most extensive and oldest in the world.
