In fact, the ink is injected in the middle layer of the skin or dermis, which has fixed cells and makes the tattoo remain intact forever. Note that the ink cannot be injected in the outermost layer of the skin or the epidermis. did Because this layer of skin is constantly being renewed and replaced and will not be able to store ink for a long time.

What is the difference between tattoo and micropigmentation?
In the past, eyebrows were tattooed in brown and black colors, which made the person's face look unnatural. In this method, the natural eyebrows were destroyed by electrolysis in order to implement a tattoo instead. Today, however, with the introduction of tattoo machines that have disposable needles and natural pigments are used to do it, the work is done with better hygiene and precision. Due to their light weight, these devices also allow the pigment to work more delicately and cause no damage to natural eyebrow hairs.
In the micropigmentation method, due to the use of disposable cartridges and colors tested, the safety and health of the work is very high and the risk of virus transmission is greatly reduced. In addition, due to the fineness of the needles of this device, the pain caused by the pigment is greatly reduced. The most important point in micropigmentation devices is the possibility of installing a disposable cartridge; While tattoo machines only have the ability to change needles. The micropigmentation device has a safety chamber to prevent substances and blood from returning to the handpiece. This is despite the fact that the old tattoo machines do not have this compartment and the previous blood and lymph can be transferred to others even with the use of a new needle. The texture becomes skin. In addition, it does not penetrate into the deep layers of the skin and only enters the color in the layer between the dermis and the epidermis. If non-safe tattoo machines lack these capabilities and bring severe pain and bleeding to the consumer.
