metals in ink

3 messages · last activity 4/7/2006

although there are metals substances in the tattoo ink does the metal heal out i can't explaine what i'm trying to say but is the metal like permantly in the skin the same as the ink. If your skin is affected by the metal in the ink will u be permantly affected by it or after healing will it no longer affect your skin? if anyone understand what im trying to say please reply
Relax....Most of what you are calling metals are actually oxides. Technically (RUST)..oops.maybe that DOESN'T sound better? Unless your my age and everything's starting to rust anyway.
Ther chemists call them "metal salts"...makes it sound better. And nearly every pigment you can find contains them.
