The science behind permanent tattoos

Our skin consists of three layers. This are epidermis, dermis and subcutaneous layers. The epidermis is the first layer which is exposure to the environment. Just behind the epidermis there is the dermis layers and just below that the subcutaneous layers that possess the connective tissue as well as the nerve fibres. Most of the people now are adopting or having tattoos as a part of a trending fashion or culture. Probably no doubt there are many tattoos designer who are involved in putting tattoos so in this today's topic we are going to discuss about the science behind getting tattoos.
              The epidermis being a outer layer which is easily be removed after every certain time. The tattoo is not applied in this area but just under it to the dermis the tattoos are applied so it is painful and cause the swelling of that part. The ink is not injected to that part but instead the by the capillary action the ink is absorbed by the layer automatically. The layer is then look to be inked properly but also due to the continuous breaking of the ink pigment and the over exposure to the sun cause the UV rays to break over hence after some months the tattoo looks so fade and pale. Primarily the different colors can be applied for the tattoos. Among them black is the common which can easily be removed by the laser tattoo removal technique. Besides black there are blue, green and other different mixtures of the colors. This colors are difficult to remove but by the special laser technique provide a strong heat and pressure to that part of the skin for the breakage of the ink pigments so it would be easy for the white body corpuscle to feed them. This type of the tattoos take some time to remove away from the body. In the same time the scientists have discovered that some of the ink used for tattooing may cause cancer due to the ink chemicals. We should not be worry because most of the ink used in the shops are branded inks which do not cause the cancer. It may be allergic for some one due to its skin infection.
        We should be careful while tattooing about its ink chemicals. However it is one of the trending fashion so there is no harm.
