Articles ( Why Do Colors Fade? )

One of the biggest problems with permanent pigments is that the best ones are unsafe for use on humans. This leaves the the industry with just a few save alternatives. For the most part, very light fast and permanent colors are used. But this is not always the case. When it comes to yellow, purple, orange or magenta, the fade resistance is still not very high. The most common reason for fading colors is Ultraviolet Light, especially the light from the sun.

This does not mean once you get a tattoo you have to stay out of the sun forever. It's just that excessive amounts of sun will fade tattoos. It fades about the same rate your skin degrades when exposing it to the sunlight too much.

Another factor is the application of the tattoo itself. I have noticed the more experienced an artist is the better he can apply the pigment correctly and the less it fades.

People often say their tattoo looks much older than it really is. All I can say to it is they probably exposed themselves too much to the sun, didn't take care of it properly during the healing process or the artist simply did not apply the pigment correctly.

Your skin ages and with it the tattoo. That's a fact and there is no way around it. If you want the tattoo to look good as long as possible take care of your skin and you will take care of your tattoo at the same time.

Articles ( Tattoo Removal Methods )

There are several different methods for tattoo removal nowadays. In the late 1980's laser treatments have become the most popular and it is still the best method to remove tattoos without any scars. Before laser treatment was used, one or more of the below explained removal methods had to be used for removal which were often painful and scar including surgeries.

Dermabrasion
This is a method where the skin is being "sanded" with a wire brush or diamond fraise, a type of sanding disc, to remove the surface layer (Epidermis) and also parts of the Dermis, the layer where the tattoo is imbedded. This process may leave scars.

Salabrasion
A salt solution is used to remove the pigment. It is sometimes used in conjunction with dermabrasion, but has become less common.

Cryosurgery
In this method the area the tattoo was placed is frozen prior to it's removal.

Excision
This was the most common method prior to laser surgery. A dermatologist removes the tattoo with a scalpel and closes the wound again with stitches. If larger tattoos had been involved, a skin graft had to be taken from another part of the body to cover up the removed area.

Scarification
Involves removing the tattoo with an acid solution and creating a scar in its place.

Camouflaging
Injections with new pigments either to form a new pattern or cover a tattoo with skin-toned pigments are used to cover the tattoo. Please note that injected pigments tend not to look natural because they lack the skin's natural translucence.

This methods above are still used today in certain cases but laser surgery has become the standard treatment for tattoo removal. Laser treatments offer a bloodless, low risk, effective alternative with minimal side effects.

Articles ( Laser Tattoo Removal )

When lasers where developed in the early 1960's, they had been developed for industrial uses only. As researchers invented lasers which emitted wavelengths of light in short flashes called pulses, medical use became an option. These lasers can effectively remove tattoos with a low health risk according to the American Academy Of Dermatology.

There are different types of lasers used for the removal of a tattoo depending on the tattoos pigment colors. Usually blue and black are the easiest to remove and yellow and green the hardest. Three different lasers were developed specifically for use in tattoo removals using a technique known as Q-Switching. This refers to the lasers Short - High energy pulses.

The Q-Switched Ruby
The Q-Switched Alexandrite
The Q-Switched Nd:YAG,
this latest system in this class of lasers is particularly advanced in the removal of red,
blue and black.

The laser works by producing short pulses of intense light harmlessly passing through the Epidermis, the top layers of the skin, to be absorbed by the pigment in the tattoo ink. The energy the laser emits causes the pigment to fragment into smaller particles which can then be naturally removed by the body's immune system.

A lot of research went into determining the right wavelengths of light to be used and how to deliver the lasers output to get the best results. The laser is conceived to break up only the pigments in the tattoo ink and not the natural pigment in the skin.

We suggest using Tattoo Goo 3-4 times daily until your new tattoo has healed.
The healing process varies among individuals
but normally this process will take 5-7 days.

SHOULD I SHARE MY OPENED TIN WITH OTHERS?
Absolutely not!
To prevent contamination and infection,
no aftercare product should ever be shared.
In fact, when applying any product to a new tattoo we recommend washing your hands thoroughly with an antibacterial soap.

they should not apply it. If after using Tattoo Goo a reaction occurs,
use should be discontinued.

or other impurities out of the skin.

Tattoos Aftercare

Do not swim in salt water or pool until your tattoo has healed.
If your tattoo scabs, DO NOT pick at it.
Wash with cold water, no soap and pat dry.
Keep your tattoo moisturised at least twice a day with
baby oil/basic moisturizer
/healing cream for tattoos/Tattoo Goo

Avoid direct sunlight or apply ample sunblock.
(This also applies after your tattoo has healed.)

Before you get a tattoo:

1) Be clear why you want it
2) Understand the symbolism behind the image you are getting inked
(e.g One of the meanings of a sakura blossom is to cherish life
because life is short, just like the blooming of the sakura.)
3) Make sure that you will take care of your new ink, maintaining a nice tattoo takes some effort.

Never get a tattoo just for fun or on a whim.
Think it through 'cos it's gonna be permanent.
The most important thing is to know what you want and to be happy with the result.

Many thanks.
