Magic Ink is considered safe. It's described as a biocompatible tattoo ink made with medical-grade polymers.
What is Magic Ink?
Magic Ink is a novel tattoo ink that boasts a unique characteristic: its ability to be switched on and off using light. As stated by Bang Bang in a PEOPLE exclusive, "[Magic Ink is a safe, biocompatible tattoo ink that you can control using different lights...It's made with medical-grade polymers, and once you've been tattooed, you can turn the ink on and off with a light.]" This implies a level of safety associated with its medical-grade components.
Safety Aspects of Magic Ink
The use of "medical-grade polymers" suggests a focus on biocompatibility, minimizing the risk of adverse reactions. However, individual reactions can vary, and further research and long-term studies are needed to fully assess its long-term safety profile. While currently deemed safe based on its composition, this should not be interpreted as eliminating all potential risks.
- Biocompatible: The ink is designed to be compatible with the body's tissues, reducing the likelihood of rejection or harmful reactions.
- Medical-Grade Polymers: The use of medical-grade materials indicates a higher standard of purity and safety than typical tattoo inks.
- Light-Activated: The light-activation feature is novel, and its long-term effects on the skin and the ink itself require further study.
