Cosmetic tattooing is a cosmetic procedure that involves inserting ink into the skin for cosmetic purposes. The process can be used to improve the size or shape of certain parts of the body, such as eyebrows, lips, or nipples. Although cosmetic tattoos are typically performed by trained medical professionals in sterile environments under sanitary conditions with disposable needles and equipment, there are also artists who do this work at home without any certification.
Anyone considering cosmetic tattooing should first read all about it before making an appointment because there are risks involved with this procedure that could make you regret your decision later on.
The first thing you need to know is cosmetic tattooing is not the same as cosmetic makeup. A cosmetic tattoo artist will create a permanent long-lasting color or pigment into your skin using an electric tattoo machine that glides on at high speeds and delivers ink deep below the surface of your skin with each application, usually following up with something like sunscreen to help seal in the color.
The second thing you need to know about cosmetic tattoos is they are applied differently than regular tattoos: instead of applying it directly onto the epidermis (the outermost layer) and letting it sink down through several layers until reaching dermal collagen fibers where most standard colors turn out vibrant and bright for years without fading away; cosmetic pigments go much deeper because light exposure can cause these types of colors to fade over time.
The last thing you need to know about cosmetic tattoos is they are much more complicated than traditional ones because the color has a lot of issues it needs to deal with in order for your body not to reject or fight against it.
Cosmetic tattooing colors have many ingredients that make them high risk, and these include – allergic reactions, granulomas (inflammation caused by foreign objects), scarring from tissue injury, damage due to ultraviolet light exposure, electrolyte imbalances that can cause cardiac arrhythmias, and death if left untreated; but cosmetic tattoo products don’t usually list this information on their labeling so you should be aware before choosing one over another.
How long do they last?
Cosmetic tattoos can last anywhere from a few months to several years, depending on the person and cosmetic tattooing professionals advise regular touch-ups every 12 weeks if you want it to have optimum results.
Conclusion: Cosmetic Tattooing is a process that requires a lot of consideration before going through with it because there are many risks involved that people do not usually think about until something goes wrong. It’s extremely important for them to be made aware of all their options so they don’t end up regretting anything later down the line.
