Introducción: la reacción de hipersensibilidad asociada a tinta de tatuaje y su manejo representan un reto diagnóstico y terapéutico, ya que no se ha realizado una guía de manejo homogénea, eficaz y segura. Por lo que se presenta una revisión con lo que se ha descrito en teorías fisiopatológicas, así como las propuestas terapéuticas y la respuesta encontrada en los casos relacionados que se han reportado. Caso clínico: paciente hombre de 30 años que inicia con dermatosis localizada en extremidad superior derecha, unilateral, asimétrica, de aspecto monomorfo, constituida por mácula artificial, provocada por tinta roja (tatuaje), con desarrollo de lesiones de aspecto papular en trazo original, pruriginosa, tiempo de evolución referido de un mes. El hallazgo histopatológico corresponde a reacción de cuerpo extraño con respuesta parcial a esteroide tópico de baja potencia. Conclusiones: según antecedentes en otros reportes y series de casos, incluyendo la experiencia con nuestro paciente, no existe una eficacia aplicable para la mayoría de los pacientes con el uso de inmunomodulares tópicos, ya que muestran mejoría completa hasta la eliminación del hapteno, ya sea de forma escicional o con láser.
