Where Does My Tattoo Go?
Tattoo pigments are small and
large particles….
Small particles are eaten by WBCs making
some color fades
WBCs can’t eat Large particles
therefore pigment is permanent
Large and small ink particles in the dermis are consifered foreign bodies will be eaten up by our immune cells
