UV Dog Skeleton Tattoo
3+ months healed. Yep, the linework =/= great. Whatever.
You will not notice this tattoo in normal light. There is a faint scar of the tattoo visible and when pointed out to people they said they had a hard time seeing it even when shown. It does glow brightly under blacklight.
Information Regarding UV Tattoos
Chameleon UV Tattoo Ink: I purchased 1oz Titanium White UV ink from this vendor. Click here for the Material Data Safety Sheets regarding BIOMETRIX System-1000 Photonic Marking Formulation Safe Spectral Marking Pigment inks.
According to the website, "The Crazy Chameleon has on file a letter dated April 3, 1995 from the Division of Programs and Enforcement Policy, USFDA, and addressed the manufacturer of our ink, containing the following conclusion:
'Having reviewed the information supplied by you [our manufacturer of the ink] and your supplier ... FDA would have no objection to the use of your photonic dye marking [tattooing] system ...'"
I had this tattoo done at No Regrets Tattoo in Raleigh, NC. They were the only shop in the state that would work with the UV ink.
Information I gathered at the time about UV tattoos left me with the impression that many tattoo artist professionals will not ink with them. They are relatively new to the market (I've heard only used in tattoos for the last 11 years) and their safety and long-term effectiveness is untested. Do your research and ask a health care provider if you have any questions related to the medical safety of such tattoos.
