An Irish TikTok star and psoriasis sufferer who woke up one day as a teen with his body covered in red, flaky patches says his tattoos are a way for him to control how his skin looks.
Damien Broderick, a marketing and social media manager, with 115k followers on TikTok, now estimates that he has around 33 tattoos covering his body and is always thinking about what patch of skin he will cover next.
The 30-year-old Dubliner was diagnosed with the condition when it suddenly appeared on his skin at the age of 17 and he has lived with psoriasis ever since that causes big flare ups covering 95% of his body.
